Impact of variable atmospheric and oceanic form drag on simulations of Arctic sea ice
Over Arctic sea ice, pressure ridges and floe and melt pond edges all introduce discrete obstructions to the flow of air or water past the ice and are a source of form drag. In current climate models form drag is only accounted for by tuning the air-ice and ice-ocean drag coefficients, that is, by e...
