The modelled surface mass balance of the Antarctic Peninsula at 5.5 km horizontal resolution
This study presents a high-resolution (∼ 5.5 km) estimate of surface mass balance (SMB) over the period 1979–2014 for the Antarctic Peninsula (AP), generated by the regional atmospheric climate model RACMO2.3 and a firn densification model (FDM). RACMO2.3 is used to force the FDM, which calculates...
