Lake Ice Safety

This repository includes data from the Community Earth System Model Version 2 Large Ensemble (CESM2-LE) and the necessary code to process the data. The code uses the downloaded CESM2-LE data to detect periods of unsafe ice cover throughout the Northern Hemisphere at different warming scenarios as well as ice quality (i.e., black ice:white ice ratios) scenarios.There is also a validation component. Because not all of those data are publicly available, we have included information to access those data from the studies that used the data originally. This work us currently under review at PLOS ONE and will be updated if there are any changes.
