comment :: the average rate that water mass evaporates (or sublimates) from the sea ice surface (i.e., kg/s) divided by the area of the ocean (i.e., open ocean + sea ice) portion of the grid cell. This quantity, multiplied both by the oean area of the grid cell and by the length of the month, should yield the total mass of water evaporated (or sublimated) from the sea ice. Reported as 0.0 in regions free of sea ice. [This was computed differently in CMIP3.]
