#SSMIS data-end grows close.
Our #SeaIce team has been busy this summer to ensure product continuity.
Our Sea Ice Index will be updated from v2.2 (SSMIS based) to v2.3 ( #AMSR2 based) from Friday 01/08/2025 on, but access to it will remain unchanged, ensuring a straightforward transition.

Ab dem 31. Juli soll die US-Wetterbehörde #NOAA keinen Zugang mehr zu wichtigen #Satellitendaten für die #Hurrikanvorhersage erhalten.
Die #Trump-Regierung unterstützt den Schritt des #Verteidigungsministeriums, das die Daten aus #Sicherheitsgründen nicht mehr teilen will.
Fachleute warnen vor sinkender #Vorhersagegenauigkeit. Besonders betroffen ist das 3D-Radarbildsystem #SSMIS, das Stärken und Veränderungen von #Wirbelstürmen früh sichtbar macht.

While I started on some vacations in #France, the #SeaIce teams at @osi_saf work hard to minimise the impact of the sudden loss of US #SSMIS data for our users. We got the news yesterday that the data flux will stop already on Monday June 30th!

@phil_browne Good morning Phil.
This method is used only for OSI-450-a, the v3 Climate Data Record (1978-2020).
We don't need it for the associated Interim CDR OSI-430-a (2021-onwards) because the ICDR uses #SSMIS only, and those missions have a small polar observation hole: it does not matter how we interpolate.
The new method was not used in our "v2" data (OSI-450 and OSI-430-b): we were using the isotropic interpolation even for the #SMMR period (which our users complained about).
