Hello everyone,
Recently I am studying the impacts of cyclones on the Arctic sea ice motion using the MITgcm model. As we know, the momentum equation of the sea ice motion is as follows:
According to the momentum equation, there are many terms that contribute to the values of sea ice velocity. Now I want to include them as the output fields of the model to analyze the variability of the sea ice motion in depth. However, I have only found the wind-ice stress (SIfu, SIfv) and the gradient (or tilt) of the sea surface height (phiSurfX, phiSurfY) in the model. What should I do for the ocean-ice stress, the Coriolis force and the divergence of the internal ice stress tensor? I am not sure what kind of forms they take in the model and how could I output them all?
Best wishes,
Jianfen Wei
