Refreezing on the Greenland ice sheet: a comparison of parameterizations by C. H. Reijmer, M. R. van den Broeke, X. Fettweis, J. Ettema, L. B. Stap

“…In this study we compare a set of 6 refreezing parameterizations against output of two Regional Climate Models (RCMs) coupled to an energy balance snow model, the Regional Atmospheric Climate Model (RACMO2) and the Modèle Atmosphérique Régional (MAR), applied to the Greenland ice sheet. In both RCMs, refreezing is explicitly calculated in a snow model that calculates vertical profiles of temperature, density and liquid water content. …”
