contents Leads and pressure ridges are dominant features of the Arctic sea ice cover. Not only do they affect heat loss and surface drag, but also provide insight into the underlying physics of sea ice deformation. Due to their elongated shape they are referred as Linear Kinematic Features (LKFs). This data-set includes LKFs that were detected and tracked in sea ice deformation simulated in an Arctic configuration of MITgcm using a 2-km horizontal grid spacing. The model data is sampled for the entire observing period of the RADARSAT Geophysical Processor System (RGPS). The data-set spans the winter month (November to May) from 1997 to 2008 and covers the entire Arctic Ocean. A detailed description of the model configuration and the data-set is provided in: Hutter, N. and Losch, M.: Feature-based comparison of sea-ice deformation in lead-resolving sea-ice simulations, The Cryosphere, https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-2019-88, accepted for publication, 2019. A detailed description of the algorithms deriving the data set is provided in: Hutter, N., Zampieri, L., and Losch, M.: Leads and ridges in Arctic sea ice from RGPS data and a new tracking algorithm, The Cryosphere, 13, 627-645, https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-13-627-2019, 2019.
