Garric (Mercator Océan) et R. Bourdallé-Badie (CERFACS)  The Model LIM2 in the Mercator systems.  Current status of sea ice in the global ¼°operational system  Recent advances The update LIM2_EVP Diurnal cycle (and ERAinterim)  Tests of LIM2_EVP in the global eddy-resolving model (1/12°)  Conclusions and Plans Objectives:  Global 1/12° operationnal in 2012 with assimilation of sea ice  Sea Ice reanalysis (1990-2010?) with the global ¼° Modelling group (G.
