Abstract
⺠We evaluate the heat flux in an ice-ocean model with the ice thickness distribution. ⺠The conductive heat flux is underestimated when using grid-averaged thickness. ⺠The annual-mean bias is about 5 W m2 in the Arctic and 2 W m2 in the Southern Ocean. ⺠This bias becomes smaller when using a harmonic mean thickness.
