FESOM 2. West and Shackleton Ice Shelf Experiment (1991-2020) / UV
The reference run was plublished in DOI:
In this experiment, all the temperature and salinity changes associated with the ice shelves in the West and Shackleton Ice Shelf (WeSh experiment) are set to 0. The experiments branch out from the reference run in 1991 and run until 2020, all model outputs are given in monthly means.
A validation of the reference run climatology can be found at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14193354
Here we provide the meridional (vnod) and zonal (unod) velocity from 1991 to 2020, south of 60S.

- Statement
-
The dataset contains monthly mean zonal and meridional ocean velocity fields from the FESOM2 West and Shackleton Ice Shelf sensitivity experiment covering the period 1991–2020. The experiment branches from the FESOM2 reference circumpolar simulation in 1991 and modifies the ice-shelf-related temperature and salinity forcing associated with the West and Shackleton ice shelves. The dataset provides model output south of 60°S and was produced to investigate the influence of these ice shelves on Southern Ocean circulation within the OCEAN ICE project.
