Main new features of SICOPOLIS v5.1

  • Support for the ISMIP6-Antarctica and ISMIP6-Greenland projection experiments
    (tinyurl.com/ismip6-wiki-ais, tinyurl.com/ismip6-wiki-gris).
  • EPSG:3413 grid (polar stereographic, 70°N/45°W)
    and BedMachine Greenland v3 topography implemented for Greenland.
  • Shallow-shelf (SSA) / shelfy-stream (SStA) solvers:
    • Proper dynamic boundary condition for SStA
      at marine-terminating grounded ice fronts.
    • One-sided surface gradients at the grounding line.
    • Convergence control.
  • Regionally different values for the basal sliding coefficient possible.
  • New GHF maps for both Antarctica and Greenland.
  • Ocean connectivity enforced (avoids formation of 'ocean islands').

For more details, see the commit logs for the branch 'develop'. A great thanks to all fellow developers who contributed to these features!
