The very persistent lack of #Antarctic sea ice in the Bellingshausen Sea region continued in June. In contrast, sea ice cover is much more widespread than average near the Ross Sea.

In June 2026, the #SeaIce global extent was 7.1% below 1991-2020 mean. Since the beginning of records (november 1978):
- #Arctic, 6th lowest monthly mean, with -5.0% less extent than normal (-567,575 km²)
- #Antarctic, 6th lowest monthly mean, with -8.3% less exent than normal (-1,141,933 km²)
