In August 2026, the #SeaIce global extent was 7.2% below 1991-2020 mean. Since the beginning of records (1978):
- #Arctic, 12th lowest monthly mean, with 9.1% less extent than normal (-617,526km²)
- #Antarctic, 4th lowest monthly mean, with 6.5% less exent than normal (1,178,424km²)

Sea ice in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas continues melt, with the total extent slightly higher than 2025 but well below the 1991-2020 median in NSIDC data. The higher concentration sea ice near the northeast Alaska coast is thicker multi-year ice from the Canadian High Arctic. #akwx #Arctic #SeaIce

Sea ice in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas continues melt, with the combined extent slightly higher than last year but well below the 1991-2020 median in NSIDC data. The higher concentration sea ice north of the northeast Alaska coast is an area of thicker multi-year ice that moved southwest in the spring from the Canadian High Arctic in the ocean currents. @Climatologist49 @ZLabe

"all this ICE got me changing my climate"

Small seaice bot progress update, mostly done with downloading and ingesting the entire US as vector shapefiles, converting to GeoJSON and a touch more work to index into the db.

Marginal ice zone (Oceanography 🌊)

The marginal ice zone is the transition region between the open ocean and the consolidated sea ice cover, located near the ice edge. It is commonly defined as the area between open water and dense pack ice, corresponding to sea ice concentrations of approximately 15% to 80%. Within this zone, the ice cover is fragmented and mobile, all...

A very telling story about Arctic sea ice decline and the climate crisis we are in.

Just spoken to a journalist worried about global #SeaIce extent, and honestly, I can see why...

The low largely driven by #Antarctica but the #Arctic not exactly helping.

With the #Arctic #recordlow #seaice extent of March 14, where did we lose sea ice during the last four decades?

Shown below is the #trend of the sea-ice concentration in the Arctic for the first two weeks of March.

Whoops, here we go again. #Global #seaice extent again #recordlow for this time of the year.
