Abstract
The sensitivity of a dynamic‐thermodynamic sea ice model coupled to a one‐dimensional mixed layer‐pycnocline model to variations of dynamic and thermodynamic model parameters is investigated. Furthermore, the modifications of the model results due to the inclusion of a prognostic snow cover and the implementation of simplified sea ice rheologies are investigated. In these comparisons special emphasis is placed upon the ice‐ocean boundary conditions (buoyancy fluxes) and the mixed layer properties.Keywords
