Observed MIZ location. For observations in the Bering–Chukchi Sea sector over the period 2000-2004: (a) daily mean MIZ latitude (black curve), interquartile range of daily MIZ latitude (IQR, gray shading), and daily mean latitude of the 273 K isotherm at depth 5.14 m in the GLORYS2V4 [\(\phi (T_b=273\;\textrm{K})\), red curve]. (b) Observed sea ice concentration from Climate Data Record (shading), mean MIZ latitude (black curve), and 5.14-m sea water temperature from GLORYS2V4 (\(T_b\); yellow contours, K). (c) daily mean MIZ width (black curve) and interquartile range (IQR) of daily MIZ width (gray shading). \((T_b-T_0)\vert _{\phi =s}\) denotes the below-ice temperature minus the skin temperature at the MIZ location, and is shown at zero lag (dashed red curve) and shifted to the right by 21 days (solid red curve). (d) \(T_b-T_0\) (shading), mean MIZ latitude (black curve), and \(T_b\) (gray contours, K).
