2023 Sea ice area and extent data
« on: January 02, 2023, 04:32:52 AM »
I want to make an introduction, so I will not repeat myself every day.

I post a table of values and a graph daily. The source of the data is:
https://ads.nipr.ac.jp/vishop/#/extent

I will highlight:
  • Average of 2010 to 2019 (violet dashed line), 2023 (red) and the 5 years with daily lowest minimum, that are 2012 (green), 2020 (brown-red with dot-dash line), 2019 (brown), 2016 (orange-yellow) & 2007 (blue).
  • Sometimes I will also highlight 2000’s average (black).
  • If there is not official value for some year, sometimes I will calculate the average increase for that day and post it on the table highlighted in yellow. I can miss to calculate this value if I feel that is not significant on that day (close or more than the greatest values on the table).

On both attachments I usually include the 15 lowest values. I will include more values if the highlighted years are not within the 15 lowest. I sometimes include a couple of years more, if I want to show the next years (that are close or far away).

Sometimes a year in the 1979-1999 range falls into the 15 lowest. In that case, I'll include this year in the table values, but I can skip it in the graph.

Which is the best answer to Sep-2012 ASI lost (compared to 1979-2000)?
50% [NSIDC Extent] or
73% [PIOMAS Volume]

Volume is harder to measure than extent, but 3-dimensional space is real, 2D's hide ~50% thickness gone.
-> IPCC/NSIDC trends [based on extent] underestimate the real speed of ASI lost.

Happy new year to all !!!  ;)

P.S. Kind of a surprise to me: 2023 starts the year with ASI being lower than any of the 5 years (with the lowest daily records on September).

It bears repeating - many thanks to Juan and Gero for keeping us up to date with well presented data. It is not an easy task, but at least be aware it is widely appreciated.

And being higher only than three “rebound” years , 2017, 2018 and 2021.
Happy new year

On average 81.2% of Area gains  from minimum to maximum done, and 69 days to maximum

Projections. (Table JAXA-Arc1)

Average remaining Area gain (of the last 10 years) would produce a maximum in March 2023 of 13.06 million km2, 0.37 million km2 above the March 2016 record low maximum of 12.63 million km2, and 7th lowest in the 44 year satellite record.

& now High Arctic sea ice area is going down while Peripheral seas ice area goes up - a reversal of the previous recent trend.

from JAXA Extent Data - a bit more

The 365 Day Trailing average.
Since mid-2022 daily sea ice extent has mostly been below that of 2021, resulting in a fall in the 365 day trailing average. However, the currrent average of 10.19 million km2 is still 0.51 million km2 above the long-term linear trend and 0.56 million km2 above the record low in March 2021.

Average (of the last 10 years) sea ice daily gains and losses in 2023 would result is a continued fall in this 365 day average, but by end 2023 still well above the long-term linear trend - by about 0.2 million km2. This reflects the considerable increase in avearge sea ice extent over the last 2 years.

The Arctic sea ice minimum, maximum, and average extent were all above their respective trend lines for 2022, per NSIDC.

[ADS NIPR VISHOP (JAXA)] Arctic Sea Ice Extent.

January 5th, 2023:
      12,406,592 km2, an increase of 40,814 km2.

For comments, see the first post in this thread.

Which is the best answer to Sep-2012 ASI lost (compared to 1979-2000)?
50% [NSIDC Extent] or
73% [PIOMAS Volume]

Volume is harder to measure than extent, but 3-dimensional space is real, 2D's hide ~50% thickness gone.
-> IPCC/NSIDC trends [based on extent] underestimate the real speed of ASI lost.

Well spotted, tyv

I missed that when 2022 became 2023.
Post corrected

Thanks,

May I make a request for 2023? Since from 1st Jan 2023, there will always be 3 years worth of data for the 2020's could you please add the 2020s average to the tables? (That is, the average for 2020, 2021 and 2022). With ice extent and area values the trend is much more informative than the day to day values, and to a lesser extent (pun not intended) how the latest value compares to the latest trend(s) and expected values derived from the trends. With the speed of change in the arctic, even the 2010s average can sometimes seem out of date.
I can include 2020-22 average on the table of values, but not on the graph.
Do you think it helps?

[ADS NIPR VISHOP (JAXA)] Arctic Sea Ice Extent.

Yes - thank you. It's a calculation I often do in my head. This will save some  brain energy. My recollection is that winter value is higher than where a linear trend would put it. The summer value is closer to the linear trend. I'm interested in how it plays out over the year.

Which is the best answer to Sep-2012 ASI lost (compared to 1979-2000)?
50% [NSIDC Extent] or
73% [PIOMAS Volume]

Volume is harder to measure than extent, but 3-dimensional space is real, 2D's hide ~50% thickness gone.
-> IPCC/NSIDC trends [based on extent] underestimate the real speed of ASI lost.

JAXA ARCTIC SEA ICE EXTENT:  12,654,282 KM2 as at 10-Jan-2023

- Extent gain on this day 3k which is 51 k less than the average gain on this day (of the last 10 years) of 54k,
- Extent gain from minimum on this date is 8,130 k, which is 379 k, 4.5% less than the 10 year average of 8,509 k.

- Extent is 5th lowest in the 44 year satellite record.

- Extent is  26 k LESS than 2021,
- Extent is  10 k LESS than 2020,
- Extent is  342 k MORE than  2018,
- Extent is  318 k MORE than 2017
- Extent is  523 k LESS than 2012
- Extent is  1,615 k LESS than the 1980’s Average
- Extent is  62 k LESS than the 2010's Average.

On average 84.4% of extent gains from minimum to maximum done, and 58 days to maximum.

Projections. (Table JAXA-Arc1)

Average remaining extent gain (of the last 10 years) would produce a maximum in March 2023 of 14.15 million km2, 0.27 million km2 above the March 2017 record low maximum of 13.88 million km2, which would be 7th lowest in the satellite record.
