| description | Vertically-integrated content of carbon in ice algae, expressed as moles of carbon per square meter of sea ice. |
| dimensions | longitude, latitude, time |
| modelling_realm | Ocean Biogeochemistry, Sea Ice |
| name | SImon.sialgc |
| physical_parameter | sialgc (Total Ice Algal Carbon Amount in Sea Ice) |
| processing_note | Note that SIMIP requests the area-weighted average for all intensive variables (i.e., variables that are not proportional to area fraction such as albedo, temperature, or heat flux). Hence, all time samples with non-zero sea-ice fraction are first multiplied by area fraction, then summed, and then divided by the sum of the area fractions. See Appendix C of Notz et al. (2016) for more detail. |
