Sea Ice Today | National Snow and Ice Data Center The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere else on the planet, and as a result, sea ice in the Arctic Ocean is decreasing Sea ice loss has far-reaching effects on the planet because the ice helps regulate Earth’s climate, influences global weather patterns, and affects ocean circulations
Charctic Interactive Sea Ice Graph - National Snow and Ice Data Center Visualize sea ice extent (area of ocean with at least 15 percent sea ice concentration) data for the Arctic and Antarctic View and compare sea ice extent data for any year or any combination of years from 1979 to present (including near-real-time daily data)
Snapshot of the Arctic - National Snow and Ice Data Center Explore Snapshot of the Arctic visualizations to track current conditions in Arctic sea ice and Arctic temperatures, and to follow long-term trends This page was assembled by the Sea Ice Prediction Network for easy access to up-to-date information about the Arctic
Arctic sea ice extent levels off; 2024 minimum set On September 11, Arctic sea ice likely reached its annual minimum extent of 4 28 million square kilometers (1 65 million square miles) The 2024 minimum is the seventh lowest in the nearly 46-year satellite record
Arctic ice thinner near Canada; thicker elsewhere The new study suggests sea ice loss over the Russian Arctic sector has led to enhanced warming over eastern Siberia and a corresponding increase in wildfire activity If ash from wildfires is deposited on the sea ice, its surface will darken and absorb more solar energy, hastening ice melt
Arctic sea ice has reached minimum extent for 2024 Arctic sea ice has likely reached its minimum extent for the year, at 4 28 million square kilometers (1 65 million square miles) on September 11, 2024, according to scientists at the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) at the University of Colorado Boulder
Sea Ice Today and Ice Sheets Today - National Snow and Ice Data Center NSIDC’s Sea Ice Today website, funded by NASA, provides near-real-time data and monthly insights and analyses on how sea ice is changing and what climate and ocean conditions may be playing a role in ice behavior Originally called Arctic Sea Ice News Analysis (ASINA), this website began in 2006, using monthly reports written for the public
Maps | National Snow and Ice Data Center Sea ice differs between the Arctic and Antarctic, primarily because of their different geographies The Arctic is a semi-enclosed ocean, almost completely surrounded by land As a result, the sea ice that forms in the Arctic is not as mobile as sea ice in the Antarctic
Sea Ice Index Daily and Monthly Image Viewer The daily Sea Ice Index provides a quick look at Arctic-wide changes in sea ice It provides consistently processed daily ice extent and concentration images and data since 1979
