Short summary
We have derived an analytical model for wind-driven free sea ice drift. We allow for partial sea ice cover using the "mixture layer" formulation and explicitly assume an oceanic Ekman layer, separated from the ice by a thin boundary layer.
Provided that surface wind field is known, it is easy to calculate sea ice motion using this analytical model. We believe this analytical model is going to be a powerful tool for identifying and quantifying the mechanisms for sea ice variability.
