changing initial condition of CICE

I would like to change the initial condition of Arctic sea ice, such as snow depth and ice thickness, using the restart file of CICE.I've examined the restart file 'xx.cice.r.0020-11-01-00000.nc', but there is no variable for snow depth.Is there a way to change the initial conditions of sea ice?

You can change the sea-ice initial condition with the namelist variable ice_icMake sure you use something that is consistent with the rest of your experiments,
