It introduces a new model file format, increased resolution, more accurate coastlines, and a simple scaling for ice shelf flexure near grounding lines. The changes included in the new CATS2008_v2023 model are: (1) The CATS2008 model has been interpolated to a finer grid (2 km for CATS2008_v2023 vs 4 km for CATS2008) to provide a better representation of coastlines and ice shelf grounding lines. (2) Coastlines have been adjusted to match BedMachine Antarctica v3 (Morlighem et al., 2020 [https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-019-0510-8]; Morlighem, 2022 [https://doi.org/10.5067/FPSU0V1MWUB6]). Areas that were previously grounded and had no tidal constituent data in CATS2008 have been filled using MATLAB\u0027s \u2018regionfill\u2019 function, applied to the real and imaginary components of tidal constituents individually. An ocean mask matching BedMachine Antarctica v3 is provided in the model file to mask out grounded areas. (3) Water depth (water column thickness under ice shelves) has been adjusted to match BedMachine Antarctica v3. (4) An ice shelf flexure model has been included for estimating tidal deflections in grounding zones. Flexure is approximated by a forward 1D linear elastic model applied to BedMachine Antarctica v3 ice geometry, with elastic modulus E=4.8 GPa and Poisson\u0027s ratio nu=0.4. The ice flexure can be included as an option when using TMD3.0 (Greene et al., 2024 [https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.06018]) and pyTMD (Sutterley, 2024 [https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10501349]) software packages. (5) The model is provided as a consolidated NetCDF file that can be used with TMD3.0 and pyTMD, but not with earlier TMD versions.

Modern grounding lines are derived from the MEaSUREs Version 2 Differential Satellite Radar Interferometry dataset with spatial resolutions of 25-120 m spanning February 1992 to December 2014 (Rignot et al., 2016; Mouginot et al., 2017). The boundaries of individual grounding lines representative of individual glacial catchments (n=664) were delineated by the inflection points of the shear strain rate, \u03b5xy (c.f Van der Veen et al., 2011). Sinuosity was calculated as the ratio of the true length, orthogonal to ice-flow direction, of the grounding lines and the straight line length between end-points and in units of km/km. Raster data were extracted at 1-km points along each grounding line; the mean was calculated for each grounding line and merged in a table with sinuosity data. A dataset of 6,275 paleo-grounding lines expressed as ice-marginal landforms on the deglaciated western Ross Sea continental shelf are used in this study, originally published by Simkins et al., 2018. The ice-marginal landforms were mapped from multibeam echo sounder data that was collected onboard the RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer (NBP) 15-02 cruise using a Kongsberg EM122 operating in dual swath mode at 12 kHz frequency with 30-60% swath overlap (Cruise DOI: 10.7284/901477). The resulting bathymetry data was gridded at 20-40 m with decimeter vertical elevation resolution depending on water depth and sea-state. Sinuosity is calculated as a ratio of true (mapped) landform length, measured in the across paleo-ice flow direction at the crest of the landform, to the straight line distance between the mapped landform endpoints and in units of km/km. \r\n\r\nTo compare modern and paleo-grounding lines, we use a consistent length scale by segmenting the grounding lines into 2-km sections for the two datasets (modern, n=12,966; paleo, n=5,832), even though this eliminates grounding lines that are less than 2-km long and thus results in 1 modern and 3,873 paleo-grounding lines removed. The full-length and 2-km segmented groundings lines are provided as shapefiles \"InSAR_groundinglines_full\" and \"InSAR_groundinglines_2km\", the paleo-grounding lines are provided as shapefiles \"RossSea_icemarginal_full\" and \"RossSea_icemarginal_2km\", and points marking modern grounding lines retreat from repeat InSAR surveys are provided as shapefile \"InSAR_retreat_points\", all stored together in a geodatabase named \"Antarctic_groundinglines.gbd\". Additional grounding line metrics, including length, sinuosity, bed roughness, and bed slope for modern and paleo-grounding lines, and height-above-buoyancy gradient, ice-flow velocity, presence of pinning points and ice shelves are provided for modern grounding lines. \r\n\r\nThe published dataset was compiled and analyzed in the article \"Controls on circum-Antarctic grounding-line sinuosity \" by Simkins, L.M., Stearns, L.A., and Riverman, K.L, which will be submitted to a peer-review journal in November 2021.\r\n\r\nReferences\r\nMouginot, J., B.
