Short summary
The study analyzes sea-ice thickness variations in the Southern Ocean using 39 CMIP6 models and satellite and reanalysis datasets. It reveals seasonal covariances between sea ice area and thickness. The models replicate the mean seasonal cycle and spatial patterns, but show significant inter-model variability, with sea-ice area better simulated than thickness. The study emphasizes the need for improved Antarctic sea-ice processes in models for accurate thickness projections.
