In ACCESS1.0 and 1.3 snow amounts were capped with excess going to runoff and appearing as freshwater at continental edge via the river scheme. This was something we added. Both HadGEM2 and HadGEM3 had no limit on snow growth and added a separate freshwater flux to ocean as a proxy iceberg melt flux.
The GC3 documentation (https://code.metoffice.gov.uk/trac/gmed/wiki/GCDev/GCDocumentation/GC3CouplingChanges) says
Icebergs fed from land ice increases: Snow amounts on land ice gradually increase over time. In GC2.0 a blanket fresh water flux was applied to the extratropical oceans to balance this snow increase. In GC3.0 the snow amounts over land ice are passed though the coupler to NEMO's prognostic iceberg scheme and iceshelf melting scheme, maintaining water conservation.
