CryoGridLite: Model output of pan-Arctic simulations at 1° resolution from 1700 to 2020

CryoGridLite is a lightweight version of the more complex and process-rich CryoGrid Community model (Westermann et al. 2022).

This archive contains the following output datasets which were produced by the model.

./SETUP.zip The parameters varied in the ensemble simulations.
./RESULTS.zip The output variables. An overview of the output variables is provided below and in the README.md file of the archived code.

The model code can be found here: 10.5281/zenodo.6619537

Input data required for pan-Arctic simulations can be found here: 10.5281/zenodo.6619212
