 viscous-plastic (VP) dynamic-thermodynamic sea ice model
 \citep{zhang97} first introduced by \citet{hibler79, hibler80}. In
 order to adapt this model to the requirements of coupled
-ice-ocean simulations, many important aspects of the original code have
+ice-ocean state estimation, many important aspects of the original code have
 been modified and improved:
 \begin{itemize}
 \item the code has been rewritten for an Arakawa C-grid, both B- and
   C-grid variants are available; the C-grid code allows for no-slip
   and free-slip lateral boundary conditions;
 \item two different solution methods for solving the nonlinear
