    Abstract. On Arctic sea ice, the melt of snow and sea ice generate asummertime flux of fresh water to the upper ocean. The partitioning of thismeltwater to storage in melt ponds and deposition in the ocean hasconsequences for the surface heat budget, the sea ice mass balance, andprimary productivity. Synthesizing results from the 1997–1998 SHEBA fieldexperiment, we calculate the sources and sinks of meltwater produced on amultiyear floe during summer melt. The total meltwater input to the systemfrom snowmelt, ice melt, and precipitation from 1 June to 9 August wasequivalent to a layer of water 80 cm thick over the ice-covered and openocean. A total of 85 % of this meltwater was deposited in the ocean, and only 15 %of this meltwater was stored in ponds. The cumulative contributions ofmeltwater input to the ocean from drainage from the ice surface and bottommelting were roughly equal.
