Arctic Sea Ice Volume Anomaly from ICEsat data, June 16, 2010

Arctic Sea Ice Volume Anomaly, from the Polar Science Center


Continuously updated Arctic Sea Ice Volume Anomaly from PIOMAS. Daily Sea Ice volume anomalies for each day are computed relative to the 1979 to 2009 average for that day. The trend for the 1979-present period is shown in blue. Shaded areas show one and two standard deviations from the trend. Click on image for a larger version of the figure
