Short summary
The output of snow-on-sea-ice models is influenced by the choice of snowfall input used. We ran such a model with different snowfall inputs and calibrated it to observations, produced a new calibrated snow product, and regionally compared the model outputs to outputs from another snow-on-sea-ice model. The two models agree best on the seasonal cycle of snow in the central Arctic Ocean. Observational comparisons highlight ongoing challenges in estimating the depth and density of snow on Arctic sea ice.
