Delayed Antarctic sea-ice decline in high-resolution climate change simulations

Thomas Rackow et al.

Summary: Delayed decline of Antarctic sea-ice is connected to Southern Ocean eddies, and it is crucial to explicitly include them in models. New multi-resolution climate change projections may explain the low confidence in the current 21st-century projections for Antarctic sea-ice made by the IPCC.

Assessment of the Finite-VolumE Sea ice-Ocean Model (FESOM2.0) - Part 2: Partial bottom cells, embedded sea ice and vertical mixing library CVMix

Patrick Scholz et al.

Summary: The second part of this paper focuses on the assessment and evaluation of the performance of partial cells and embedded sea ice in the unstructured-mesh Finite-volumE Sea ice-Ocean Model version 2.0 (FESOM2.0), as well as the impact of different mixing parameterisations available through the Community Vertical Mixing (CVMix) package. The study shows significant improvements in the representation of the Gulf Stream, North Atlantic Current, and Arctic Ocean circulation due to the implementation of partial cells and embedded sea ice. Additionally, the paper documents the effect of various mixing parameterisations from the CVMix project library, including tidal mixing, turbulent kinetic energy-based mixing, and a combination of turbulent kinetic energy and internal wave dissipation.

Evaluation and optimisation of the I/O scalability for the next generation of Earth system models: IFS CY43R3 and XIOS 2.0 integration as a case study

Xavier Yepes-Arbos et al.

Summary: Earth system models have increased spatial resolution to solve more complex problems, generating a large amount of model data that requires proper management. The commonly adopted approach to address this issue is to use scalable parallel I/O solutions that offer computational performance and efficiency. Integrating the XML Input/Output Server into the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts' operational Integrated Forecasting System has been shown to reduce the computational cost of data-intensive climate runs.

An Updated Assessment of Near-Surface Temperature Change From 1850: The HadCRUT5 Data Set

C. P. Morice et al.

Summary: HadCRUT5 is a new version of a global surface temperature data set, incorporating sea-surface temperature and land near-surface air temperature measurements. Two variants are produced for different applications, with the combination of revised input data sets and statistical analysis resulting in greater warming of the global average over the entire record period.

A Spatial Evaluation of Arctic Sea Ice and Regional Limitations in CMIP6 Historical Simulations

Matthew Watts et al.

Summary: The study assessed the Arctic sea ice response to a warming climate in a subset of models participating in CMIP6, finding that the multimodel mean captures sea ice trends well, but individual models exhibit uncertainty and biases in spatial distribution. Large errors in ice edge and thickness in Arctic subregions suggest possible limitations in representing key physical processes, particularly in marginal and shelf seas. The study concludes that representing the observed spatial distribution remains a challenge and proposes spatial analysis metrics as useful tools for diagnosing model limitations and guiding future improvements.

Impact of Sea-Ice Model Complexity on the Performance of an Unstructured-Mesh Sea-Ice/Ocean Model under Different Atmospheric Forcings

Lorenzo Zampieri et al.

Summary: This study equipped the FESOM2 model with physical parameterizations derived from the Icepack model, expanding the range of physical processes that can be represented. Through iterative calibration, it was found that complex model formulations lead to better representation of sea-ice concentration and snow thickness, with atmospheric forcings also impacting the simulation results.

AMOC Variability and Watermass Transformations in the AWI Climate Model

D. Sidorenko et al.

Summary: This study analyzes local contributions to AMOC variability in a 900-year simulation using the AWI climate model through the frameworks of depth (z) and density (rho), revealing consistent interdecadal variability, while the correlation between them deteriorates on year-to-year scales. Additionally, the study demonstrates the spatial patterns of sinking and diapycnal transformations through depth levels and isopycnals, highlighting the importance of spatial binning for accurate analysis. The response of the AMOC to fast fluctuations in atmospheric forcing associated with NAO is more obvious in the density (rho) framework than in the depth (z) framework, while the link between AMOC and deep water production south of Greenland is consistent across different frameworks for slower fluctuations.

Nicola Scafetta

Summary: The study tests the performance of 38 CMIP6 models in reproducing observed climate changes over the past 40 years, finding that most models overestimate warming and models with low ECS values perform better, suggesting that they should be preferred for climate change scenario forecasts.

A Schwarz iterative method to evaluate ocean-atmosphere coupling schemes: implementation and diagnostics in IPSL-CM6-SW-VLR

Olivier Marti et al.

Summary: State-of-the-art Earth system models face temporal inconsistencies at the ocean-atmosphere interface due to coupling algorithms not providing correct phasing between the ocean and atmosphere. The Schwarz iterative method can help reduce these inconsistencies but comes with high computational cost. Comparisons between the Schwarz method and standard coupling methods show significant differences in numerical solutions, indicating potential errors in current coupling methods, especially around sunrise and sunset.
