"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.

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.

The place that never freezes: the Arctic habitat where global heating threatens more ice, not less
By Words and pictures by Jimmy Thomson in Nunavut, CanadaThe race to study the North Water between Canada and Greenland before it changes has led to a bold plan for an Inuit-run protected area

Oh baby this is kinda the jackpot, just the missing datasets I need!
Looking it over this appears to give me damned near enough data to track kidnappings from start to deportation.
Meanwhile we've got plenty of ground truth data to notice trends, spikes and holes in citizen reporting.

Alright... almost have the website design dialed in.
Time to switch gears and plumb the backend.
Thinking of supporting both receiving alerts as a DM if you're an individual. It can also be setup as integration for Mutual Aid groups so if you want to make a ICE specific alert bot for your area you can OR if you have existing accounts you can wire it up to have posts go out from your account.
-
Apologies, the bots were down for 10 hours. Had a crash I didn't notice, adding more reporting so I get outage alerts.
Sorry about the downtime.
-
Alright, finally caught up on sleep.
How's it been working for people?
Do you have feature requests?
Any masto bot best practices?I'm gonna analyze how the bots been operating and pace of operations.
We haven't had an ICE sighting in Seattle proper for an unusually long time so I'm going to work on supporting the areas seeing ICE more than us.
-
Indeed, I've setup three alert bots so far and have some big updates coming to enable more regions. See more in my devlog thread linked below
@seaice - Only seattle alerts
@seaice_usa - Every location there's not a specific bot for
@seaice_ma - Massachusetts wide alerts

Mapping Snow On Northern Winter Roads - A Dual-Frequency Polarimetric Radar Approach For Snow Characterization Over Land, Lake And Sea Ice

“Winter roads are essential transportation links for many remote northern communities, but their safety and reliability depend strongly on snow conditions and ice growth. In this study [link above], [the authors] evaluated a fully polarimetric, dual-frequency Ku- and Ka-band radar approach for retrieving snow depth across landfast sea ice, lake ice, and tundra.
Using field measurements near Churchill, Manitoba, and Resolute Bay, Nunavut [Canada], [they] found that the approach produced snow-depth retrieval bias and error within 3 cm over landfast ice, with encouraging Ku-band performance over frozen ground as well. [They] also developed an interface-detection approach for lake ice that can retrieve both snow depth and ice thickness - a promising direction for characterizing conditions relevant to winter-road planning and safety…”

“Winter roads are lifelines for remote northern communities. Built over land, lakes, rivers, and sea ice, these travel routes are increasingly vulnerable to warming temperatures and variable precipitation. To ensure safety and adapt to these changes, operators require high-resolution monitoring of snow depth across these diverse surfaces, as natural snow accumulation dictates ice growth rates, route viability and road stability. This study extends our polarimetric radar method, previously demonstrated on pack ice, to landfast sea ice, tundra, and frozen lakes and assesses how well we can retrieve snow depth over these surfaces. Results indicate consistency with earlier sea ice analyses, maintaining a mean snow depth retrieval bias and error within 3 cm over the landfast ice. Promising performance is also found over frozen ground using Ku-band (mean biases less than 6 cm). To address the specific challenge of lake ice, which includes strong returns from the ice/water interface, we present a new interface-detection technique that simultaneously retrieves snow depth and ice thickness. While current validation focuses on undisturbed snow, this approach could provide a path forward for characterizing the cryospheric environment in a way that can directly support the optimization of winter roads…”

Whorls of Sea Ice
Fresh snow shines white on the southern end of Greenland in this satellite image, taken in late February 2025. Whorls of sea ice sit off the coast, where they trace out patterns that reflect the winds and ocean currents of the region. Arctic sea ice typically reaches its largest extent by early March before experiencing a long season of melting. Both the presence and absence of sea ice have a large effect on the Arctic regions. Sea ice helps dampen wave activity; without it, seas are higher and more dynamic, creating more aerosols that seed cloud cover in the Arctic and elsewhere. (Image credit: L.

#SeaIce around the #polar regions plays a critical part in #protecting the adjacent #IceSheets. Less sea ice means less #sunlight will be reflected back to #space, causing #waters to #warm more & #destabilize surrounding #ice & #glaciers. #Coastlines are also much more exposed w/less sea ice, removing a buffer that could help protect #melting #IceShelves or ice sheets.

Status of the #January #seaice in the #Antarctic:
- Sea-ice extent was clearly *record-low* for January this year.
- Large negative sea-ice anomalies are seen in #Bellinghausen, #Amundsen/#Ross, and even an open-water region in the eastern #Weddell SeaSource: #OSISAF
