The location of the thermodynamic atmosphere–ice interface in fully coupled models – a case study using JULES and CICE

In fully coupled climate models, it is now normal to include a sea ice component with multiple layers, each having their own temperature. When coupling this component to an atmosphere model, it is more common for surface variables to be calculated in the sea ice component of the model, the equivalen...
