o 
Can we agree on coherent terminology of
Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA).

ML: OK, done.

o 
Export numbers for free-slip, noslip are not consistent with what I have.
Also, do we want to refer to annual mean, or rather integrated annual transport?

ML: I computed hu = -sum((SIheff+SIhsnow)*SIuice*area)/sum(area) at
i=100,j=116:122, and then took mean(hu) and std(hu). What are your numbers?

o
You've removed a lot of "basic" descriptions which I think need to be
mentioned first before looking at pecularities

ML: OK, assuming that you put it back in, I am happy with the content of
the text (but changed some wording ... )

o
Figure 5:
Could you refine zonal grid to 10deg. spacing.
(e.g. by slightly diminishing label size).

ML: I have put ticks every 10deg, but labels every 20deg (not so
simple with m_grid

o 
Figure 6: good, but a bit messy as it is now.
I suggest to
* remove bottom row (ice strength)
* increase size of remaining plots,
* add more separation between the rows,
* add another 1-Jul line (in addition to the 1-Jan) line (for better orientation)
Furthermore, an extra Figure which contains same type of Hovmueller plots for
* current bottom row (ice strength)
* row with ice concentration
* row with ice thickness
* row with snow thickness
* row with SST
(main reason is that ice strenght vs. precip. "correlations" don't fully hold up)
Finally, would be nice to have a picture
of the zonal section.


ML: it's not a zonal section but a "meridional" (j-) average of grid
points i=100:130, j=116:122, but maybe a section is a better idea?
I have now actually removed some of the "inlets" that I have
carelessly averaged over:

i = 100:130;
j = 116:121;

rhoice = 0.92;
rhosnw = 0.33;
dxg=rdmds(fullfile('grid','DXG'));
dyg=rdmds(fullfile('grid','DYG'));
hf =rdmds(fullfile('grid','hFacC'));
ar = dxg.*dyg.*hf(:,:,1);

[nx,ny]=size(xc);

arij  = ar(i,j); 
% special masking to remove various inlets, etc.
arij(14:end,6) = 0;
arij(24:end,5) = 0;
arij(1:15,1) = 0;
arij(11,2:3) = 0;
