Meetings related to the CliC Sea Ice and Climate Modeling Forum.
A half-day SIMIP workshop will be held on, Sunday, August 18, 2019, before IGS, from 9 AM to 12:30 PM, in the GatewayRoom at the Fort Garry Hotel, to discuss ongoing SIMIP analysis in the target groups and possible collaborations on papers.
Note that for inclusion in the AR6 report, papers need to be accepted by September 30th 2020. To be included in the 2nd draft of the AR6 report, papers need to be submitted by Dec 31 2019. Please email all your submitted and accepted papers of possible relevance to AR6 to as soon as possible. Confidentiality is ensured. Please also email Dirk Notz directly about any AR6 relevant sea ice results you expect to be published by the 30th of September, so he can make space for those results while writing the sea ice section.

Session 12.1, Sea ice in CMIP6 models, Monday, August 19th, 9:30am-12:10pm Selkirk Ballroom
We also have a dedicated SIMIP session at the IGS Sea ice meeting in Winnipeg (Session 12.1 Sea Ice in CMIP6 models), where we hope you will submit your CMIP6 sea ice results (https://www.igsoc.org/symposia/2019/winnipeg/)
Chairs: Alexandra Jahn, University of Colorado, USA; Marika Holland, University of Colorado, USA; Elizabeth Hunke, Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA; François Massonnet, Université catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium; Dirk Notz, MPI-M, Hamburg, Germany; Julienne Stroeve, University of Manitoba, Canada / University College London, UK / NSIDC, USA; Bruno Tremblay, McGill University, Montreal, Canada; Martin Vancoppenolle, Sorbonne Université, CNRS, Paris, France
We invite sea ice modeling contributions, in particular ones that use large-scale model simulations and address the questions formulated within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 (CMIP6) – endorsed Sea-Ice Model Intercomparison Project (SIMIP). These questions include: 1) What are the physical processes that affect sea ice changes? 2) Why do model simulations differ from each other? 3) Why do model simulations differ from the observational record? 4) What can we do to reduce these differences to obtain a better understanding and achieve better projections? Topics of interest include but are not limited to, model evaluation, analyses, intercomparisons, or other sea-ice related science carried out with Earth System Models or Climate Models, or with other methods that help advance the understanding of the output from these large-scale models in relationship to the real world.
September 26th, University of Reading, UK
Department of Meteorology, Room 1L61
This one-day workshop brought together users and developers of sea-ice models to start a joint effort for improving sea-ice models. We will coordinate the analysis of sea-ice biases in CMIP5 models, determine the most pressing needs for model development, identify the most helpful observational data, and compile a list of the most useful sea ice variables to be saved for CMIP6. The workshop is the first in a series of planned activities from the Sea ice and Climate Modeling Forum, which is a WCRP-CliC initiative that aims at improving and better understanding large-scale sea-ice simulations by coordinating a joint effort of the international sea ice modeling community. Following a few short plenary talks, the workshop will consist of breakout group and discussion sessions.
For more information, please contact the meeting organizers:
Alexandra Jahn, NCAR, USA
Dirk Notz, MPI for Meteorology, Germany
Daniel Feltham, University of Reading, UK
The full-day workshop will begin with a few over-view talks including an introduction to the new CliC Sea Ice and Climate Modeling Forum. This will be followed by breakouts and group discussions, etc.
The meeting will take place at the University of Reading, UK, Room 1L61 in the Department of Meteorology
