Monthly mean reanalysis of Arctic sea ice thickness, concentration, and velocity

This dataset contains the Pan-Arctic Ice Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (PIOMAS) retrospective investigation model output from 1978-2005. The data contains arctic sea ice thickness and concentration, snow depth, ice growth rate, and ocean surface salinity. This dataset is part of the Bering Sea Ecosystem Study-Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research Program (BEST-BSIERP). BEST-BSIERP together are the Bering Sea project.
