Using records from submarine, aircraft and satellites to evaluate climate model simulations of Arctic sea ice thickness

Arctic sea ice thickness distributions from models participating in the World Climate Research Programme Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) are evaluated against observations from submarines, aircraft and satellites. While it is encouraging that the mean thickness distributions fr...
