The ISMIP7 protocol is currently under development and will build upon the foundation of ISMIP6. Protocol documentation and experiment plans will be uploaded once finalized.
The ISMIP6 protocol outlines the standardized framework for modeling ice sheet responses to various climate forcing scenarios.
On this file, you will find an overview of the ISMIP6 project, with details on the different experimental setups and goals for both Greenland and Antarctica.

Result of initMIP-Greenland have been published in the following article: https://tc.copernicus.org/articles/12/1433/2018/tc-12-1433-2018.html
initMIP-Antarctica focuses on providing a more detailed framework for the ISMIP6 standalone ice sheet experiments, specifically targeting the initialization of Antarctic ice sheet models.

ISMIP6-Projections-Antarctica provides a detailed description of the ISMIP6 standalone ice sheet experiment protocols designed to project the future evolution of the Antarctic ice sheet.

ISMIP6-Projections2300-Antarctica outlines the experimental protocols used for the extended ISMIP6 projections, focusing on the evolution of the Antarctic ice sheet through the year 2300.
ABUMIP-Antarctica focuses on understanding the response of the Antarctic ice sheet to the weakening or complete loss of its ice shelves, simulating extreme scenarios of ice shelf collapse.
