The met.no ice model MI-IM
• 3-layer Semtner-type model
• Prognostic equations for: ice volume, snow volume, ice concentration, internal heat of the ice
• EVP dynamics• Positive definite
advection (non-oscillatory MPDATA)
• Discretized at C-grid• Soon: MPI-parallelized

Inertial oscillations
• We have experienced problems in MICOM with unstable inertial oscillations due to the stress turning term in a C-grid. – No problems for dynamical coupling
time-steps > 12 h (2/f). • MIPOM can be unstable for very thin
surface sigma-layers. – Implicit calculation of ice-ocean stress
inside MIPOM is required

Summary
• Different vertical representation of the upper ocean is the fundamental difference between the coupling to MICOM and MIPOM.– Coupling should be easier in z-level or hybrid-
layer models with a reasonable resolved, equidistant grid-spacing in the upper ocean.
• Unstable inertial oscillations may occur in both types of systems but they are avoidable.
• Ice models like MI-IM has to be tuned to give a realistic amount of sea ice, both in stand-alone ice-ocean simulations and when coupled to atmosphere models.
