Preliminary DOI/Repository of ALPINE3D and SNOWPACK data of the submitted paper "Towards a fully physical representation of snow on Arctic sea ice using a 3D snow-atmosphere model"

There are 2 zip folders in this repository.

"a3d_jgr.zip" contains a folder structure that must be kept as it is in order to run the simulation in the current configuration.
The setup contains both input and output data as well as the model configuration as used in the submitted manuscript 
"Towards a fully physical representation of snow on Arctic sea ice using a 3D snow-atmosphere model".

The zip file contains 3 main folders:

base_setup_files

a3d_jgr_alpha1

 a3d_jgr_alpha3

The "base_setup_files" contains all input files that are necessary to run the reference (R) simulation ("a3d_jgr_alpha1" folder) and the comparison "C" scenario ("a3d_jgr_alpha3") folder. In the a3d_jgr_alpha1 and a3d_jgr_alpha3 folders you find the corresponding outputs as used in the paper, as well as the settings used - which only differ by the changed "SCHMIDT_DRIFT_FUDGE" value that is found in each a3d_jgr_alphax/setup/io.ini file. The input data is already linked accordingly in each io.ini file.

a3d_jgr_alpha1 also contains the detailed snow profiles for each point along the transects.

To reproduce the results, download and compile the source code for the adjusted ALPINE3D model first, which can be obtained from https://gitlabext.wsl.ch/snow-models/alpine3d.git under the "alpine3d_mosaic" branch. After installing, you can run the provided model setup uploaded here.

"SNOWPACK_JGR.zip" contains both input and output data for SNOWPACK as well as the model configuration as used in the submitted manuscript "Towards a fully physical representation of snow on Arctic sea ice using a 3D snow-atmosphere model".

The zip file contains 2 main folders: 

SNOWPACK_JGR_ALPHA1

SNOWPACK_JGR_ALPHA3

In the SNOWPACK_JGR_ALPHA1 (reference "SP_R" simulation) and SNOWPACK_JGR_ALPHA3 (comparison "SP_C" scenario) folders you find the corresponding inputs, outputs and configuration as used in the paper, as well as the settings used - which only differ by the changed "SCHMIDT_DRIFT_FUDGE" value that is found in each SNOWPACK_JGR_ALPHA/setup/io.ini file. The input data is already linked accordingly in each io.ini file.

To reproduce the results, download and compile the source code for the adjusted SNOWPACK model first, which can be obtained from https://gitlabext.wsl.ch/snow-models/snowpack.git under the "snowpack_mosaic" branch. After installing, you can run the provided model setup uploaded here.
