# ESMValTool --- documentation: title: Sea ice sensitivity description: | Recipe for quantifying the sensitivity of sea ice to global warming. Siconc data is summed for each hemisphere and then compared to the change in globally meaned, annually meaned surface air temperature. In the northern hemisphere, September sea ice data is used. In the southern hemisphere, annual mean sea ice data is used. Two plots are produced for each hemisphere, one showing the gradient of the direct regression of sea ice area over temperature, and the other showing the two separate trends over time. authors: - parsons_naomi - sellar_alistair - blockley_ed maintainer: - parsons_naomi defaults: &defaults {ensemble: r1i1p1f1, exp: historical, grid: gn, project: CMIP6} datasets: - {<<: *defaults, dataset: HadGEM3-GC31-LL, institute: MOHC, ensemble: r1i1p1f3, label_dataset: True} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: UKESM1-0-LL, institute: MOHC, ensemble: r1i1p1f2, label_dataset: True} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: ACCESS-CM2, institute: CSIRO-ARCCSS} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: ACCESS-ESM1-5, institute: CSIRO} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: BCC-CSM2-MR, institute: BCC} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: CAMS-CSM1-0, institute: CAMS} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: CanESM5, institute: CCCma} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: CESM2, institute: NCAR} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: CESM2-WACCM, institute: NCAR} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: CESM2-WACCM-FV2, institute: NCAR} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: FIO-ESM-2-0, institute: FIO-QLNM} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: MIROC6, institute: MIROC} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: MPI-ESM-1-2-HAM, institute: HAMMOZ-Consortium} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: MPI-ESM1-2-HR, institute: MPI-M} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: MPI-ESM1-2-LR, institute: MPI-M} - {<<: *defaults, dataset: MRI-ESM2-0, institute: MRI} preprocessors: extract_test_period: &extract_test_period extract_time: start_day: 1 start_month: 1 start_year: 1979 end_day: 31 end_month: 12 end_year: 2014 extract_sept: &extract_sept extract_month: month: 9 nh_total_area: &nh_total_area extract_region: start_longitude: 0 end_longitude: 360 start_latitude: 0 end_latitude: 90 area_statistics: operator: sum convert_units: units: 1e6 km2 sh_total_area: &sh_total_area extract_region: start_longitude: 0 end_longitude: 360 start_latitude: -90 end_latitude: 0 area_statistics: operator: sum convert_units: units: 1e6 km2 global_mean: &global_mean area_statistics: operator: mean annual_mean: &annual_mean annual_statistics: operator: mean pp_arctic_sept_sea_ice: <<: *extract_test_period <<: *extract_sept <<: *nh_total_area pp_antarctic_avg_ann_sea_ice: <<: *extract_test_period <<: *annual_mean <<: *sh_total_area pp_avg_ann_global_temp: <<: *extract_test_period <<: *global_mean <<: *annual_mean diagnostics: arctic: description: Plots September sea ice sensitivity above 0 latitude in millions of square kilometres variables: siconc: preprocessor: pp_arctic_sept_sea_ice mip: SImon tas: preprocessor: pp_avg_ann_global_temp mip: Amon scripts: sea_ice_sensitivity_script: script: seaice/seaice_sensitivity.py observations: observation period: 1979-2014 sea ice sensitivity (Notz-style plot): mean: -4.01 standard deviation: 0.32 plausible range: 1.28 annual trends (Roach-style plot): first point: GMST trend: SIA trend: Pearson CC of SIA over GMST: significance of SIA over GMST: second point: GMST trend: SIA trend: Pearson CC of SIA over GMST: significance of SIA over GMST: third point: GMST trend: SIA trend: Pearson CC of SIA over GMST: significance of SIA over GMST: antarctic: description: Plots annual mean sea ice sensitivity below 0 latitude in millions of square kilometres variables: siconc: preprocessor: pp_antarctic_avg_ann_sea_ice mip: SImon tas: preprocessor: pp_avg_ann_global_temp mip: Amon scripts: sea_ice_sensitivity_script: script: seaice/seaice_sensitivity.py observations: observation period: sea ice sensitivity (Notz-style plot): mean: standard deviation: plausible range: annual trends (Roach-style plot): first point: GMST trend: SIA trend: Pearson CC of SIA over GMST: significance of SIA over GMST: second point: GMST trend: SIA trend: Pearson CC of SIA over GMST: significance of SIA over GMST: third point: GMST trend: SIA trend: Pearson CC of SIA over GMST: significance of SIA over GMST:
