BESTMAS (a coupled sea ice-ocean model) Simulated Results
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/102.125

Summary
This data set includes the Bering Ecosystem Study ice-ocean Modeling and
Assimilation System (BESTMAS) simulated monthly mean sea ice thickness and
velocity, snow depth, and surface ocean temperature and velocity over the
whole Bering Sea defined here as the area north of the Aleutian Chain up to
Bering Strait for the period 1996-2008. Data were collected during the Bering
Sea Ecosystem Study-Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research Program
(BEST-BSIERP). BEST-BSIERP together are the Bering Sea project.
