  1. 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)

  2. 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

  3. "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.

  4. The U.S. National Ice Center's Northwest Passage (connecting the northwest Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean) sea ice analysis product was last updated three weeks ago. This is not helpful.

  5. Fantastic day with the #iClimate crew from @AarhusUni at their annual meeting . A genuinely interdisciplinary #Climate group with talks covering #Energy grids and how to account for #Renewables in #IAMs, how to encourage more people in #FlyingLess plus #palaeoclimate the state of #Arctic #SeaIce + #methane #aerosols #biodiversity and the #Economics of #climateadaptation

    They're doing some really great #Science + #SocialScience research. Go check them out.
