CPOM plays a leading role in national and international sea ice model development, collaborated extensively with core users at the Met Office, NOC and BAS, and makes our models and outputs available to the sea ice community, including the UK Sea Ice Group.
CPOM currently improves the climate sea ice model SI3 by implementing new physics and supporting and guiding researchers across the wider Polar Research Community in its use.
