Abstract
Based on the CICE viscoplastic sea ice model, the ice cover of the Gulf of Ob and the northwestern Okhotsk Sea was simulated for the winter seasons of 2021/2022, 2022/2023, and 2023/2024. The description of the seasonal variability of sea ice characteristics in these areas and examples of their numerical modeling are given. Using atmospheric forcing based on the WRF-ARW nonhydrostatic atmospheric model, the sea ice thickness in the northwestern Okhotsk Sea was predicted for April 2024. A comparison of the forecasts with the ice maps of the Hydrometcentre of Russia and sea ice thickness measurements at the Ayan and Bolshoy Shantar stations gave satisfactory results.
