3 This paper describes a sea-ice model that has been developed for coupled
4 ocean and sea-ice state estimation. This sea ice model includes both
5 forward and adjoint counterparts. The forward model borrows many components
6 from current-generation sea ice models but these components are reformulated
7 on an Arakawa C grid in order to match the MITgcm oceanic grid and they are
8 modified in many ways to permit efficient and accurate automatic
9 differentiation. Ice mechanics follow a viscous-plastic rheology and the ice
10 momentum equations are solved numerically using either
11 line-successive-relaxation (LSR) or elastic-viscous-plastic (EVP) dynamic
12 models. Ice thermodynamics are represented using either a
13 zero-heat-capacity formulation or a two-layer formulation that conserves
14 enthalpy. The model includes prognostic variables for snow and for sea-ice
15 salinity, several different formulation of ice-ocean stress, and the option
16 to use sophisticated conservative advection schemes with flux limiting.

18 This paper illustrates the utilization of the forward and adjoint
19 counterparts via exploration of forward and adjoint model sensitivities to
20 littoral interactions in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. [SOME CONCLUSIONS
21 TO BE ADDED HERE.]
