Using a multi-layer snow model for transient paleo-studies: surface mass balance evolution during the Last Interglacial by T.-K.-D. Hoang, A. Quiquet, C. Dumas, A. Born, D. M. Roche, D. M. Roche

“…While BESSI performs well for both Antarctica and Greenland for the same set of parameters, the ITM parameters need to be adapted specifically for each ice sheet. This suggests that the physics embedded in BESSI allows better capture of SMB changes across varying climate conditions, while ITM displays a much stronger sensitivity to its tunable parameters. …”
