Description:A Lagrangian snow ‐evolution model (SnowModel ‐LG) was used to produce daily, pan ‐Arctic, snow ‐on‐sea‐ice, snow property distributions on a 25 × 25 ‐km grid, from 1 August 1980 through 31 July 2018 (38 years). The model was forced with NASA's Modern Era Retrospective ‐Analysis for Research and Applications ‐Version 2 (MERRA ‐2) and European Centre for Medium ‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ReAnalysis ‐5th Generation (ERA5) atmospheric reanalyses, and National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) sea ice parcel concentration and trajectory data sets (approximately 61,000, 14 × 14 ‐km parcels). The simulations performed full surface and internal energy and mass balances within a multilayersnowpack evolution system. Processes and features accounted for included rainfall, snowfall, sublimation
