ISMIP provides a wide range of datasets and collections to support research in ice sheet modeling, climate interactions, and sea level rise projections. These datasets are crucial for understanding ice sheet dynamics and advancing the goals of ISMIP.
We welcome the use of ISMIP datasets. Given the hard work from so many people, we will follow the CMIP6 guidance for acknowledgements and referencing models and key papers (see below). We are also using the ice2sea method of tracking ISMIP6 related papers, so when your manuscript is submitted or accepted, please email ismip6@gmail.com, so that we can assign you a contribution number, which will go in the acknowledgements as “This is ISMIP6 contribution No X”. Please see the publication page.
These datasets can be retrieved from the globus node, accessible via the Ghub links below:
ISMIP6 23rd Century Projections - AIS only
ISMIP6 23rd Century Forcing Datasets - AIS only
Acknowledgements should have language similar to (if you only use CMIP5 forcing, remove CMIP6 and vice versa, and update this text for ISMIP7).
“We thank the Climate and Cryosphere (CliC) effort, which provided support for ISMIP6 through sponsoring of workshops, hosting the ISMIP6 website and wiki, and promoted ISMIP6. We acknowledge the World Climate Research Programme, which, through its Working Group on Coupled Modelling, coordinated and promoted CMIP5 and CMIP6. We thank the climate modeling groups for producing and making available their model output, the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) for archiving the CMIP data and providing access, the University at Buffalo for ISMIP6 data distribution and upload, and the multiple funding agencies who support CMIP5 and CMIP6 and ESGF. We thank the ISMIP6 steering committee, the ISMIP6 model selection group and ISMIP6 dataset preparation group for their continuous engagement in defining ISMIP6. This is ISMIP6 contribution No X.”
