@oren 10MB is too big (everyone will want to post that size)

Here testing nullschool overlaid onto L Kaleschke leads. Irritating that I used PS locations from S1 images which stopped being available. Will rework this with p207 locs sometime. (substituted for the last few frames)
@johnm33 PS moves with the leads (except when there is no location data

I find it particularly interesting that the leads and apparent wave structures move through the ice rather than with it, the PS' slow progress is the best indication of this I've seen. The emergent double features indicates an acceleration?
Long version probably off topic for the mosaic thread.
Kaleschke Sic Leads, oct1-feb20 for further perusal. Lead motion likely wind based, will try a nullschool overlay sometime.

https://go.nasa.gov/37EBZFr, Okhotsk sea (north), feb10-20, unihamburg-amsr2uhh inset. ctr

edit: Early maximum extent just about hanging in there. Probably dependent mostly on possible increases in Okhotsk and Baffin/Newfoundland (still at all time low). Bering still high for recent years and Barents/Kara forecast for southerly winds, so drifting north. Very little MYI in Greenland and Baffin Seas.
Wipneus regional extent, feb18. updated to feb19 - barentsz/kara drop, baffin/nfld rise, okhotsk slightly up, bering(very southerly) likely over reached with the continuous drift.

Given a similar calculation for L1 and L3
Tbuoy gps appear to be struggling somewhat. Wbuoys didn't last long. I and Fbuoys??
An equal combination of R8(L2), R9(L1) and S94(L3) gives the estimated PS location below. It looks a bit too far west. I'll run it back to known location points, it could work.

added jan5-15 as a test. Red dots are S1 calculated PS locations (timing not checked)

Despite the drift, plenty of 1-2yr old ice is still melting on arrival at Svalbard. The forecast deep cyclone over Barents/Kara persists from the long term into medium term.
Extent on feb10 "10,048 k, 790 k (8.5%) MORE than the average last 10 years gain to date of 9,258 k."
Near term Kara drift possibly outweighs upcoming Barents drift and melt.
Bering sea already way over recent maximums
Baffin at all time low, very little MYI component.
Relatively mild over Okhotsk coastal region.

Early maximum extent?

Now, where to put that airstrip?
Here showing most Mosaic IABP buoys that report on the hour. Some report only on the half hour. Inset is nullschool wind isobaric at 1000hpa. Frames are repeated twice to match the hourly buoys. Projection is done using PlotSvalbard in R. Delaunay triangulation in Octave.

When he realized, that he won't drift to the pole, #Nansen went North by
skis. As we likely passed our northernmost point, we did the same ... As
we are already 150km further north than he ever reached, we only walked
for 1 hour and camped only 1 night to test our survival
Maybe they'll go camping again  https://twitter.com/CKatlein

tech note: nullschool locations are from p207, the northernmost buoy. The title is incorrect. It should say P201, 204 and 207. P193 often, but irregularly, misses ~2hrs of data so I went back to 201.

a Before and b after 2007, including the wind work, W (comprised of atmosphere-ocean, Wao, and ice–ocean, Wio, components), available potential energy (APE), and eddy dissipation, Weddy. The atmosphere and ocean circulations are illustrated by ua and ug, respectively. The size of the arrows/vectors represents their relative strength. The loss of sea ice after 2007 led to increased wind energy input to the BG, increased APE, and increased energy dissipation and freshwater stabilization by eddies.

Implications for the changing Arctic
Increases in the eddy diffusivity and increased mixing by eddy activity in a more energetic Arctic Ocean is also expected to enhance vertical transport of warm Atlantic water, with consequences for sea ice growth and mixing of biogeochemical tracers.

the lat-long grid is erased by the progression of buoy location
macid's original code uses R gganimate to create the animations. Adding the graticule from plotSvalbard slows down the process by 5-6 times, making a 5m job take 30mins. So I use a tip from A-Team to create the graticule with a 2frame animation, which takes a minute, clean up a couple of buoy dots, delete the second frame and insert it into the long animation at frame2.
Add an alpha channel to the frame, set white to transparent and merge it down to the first frame.
Much quicker, but the buoy paths overwrite the grat as they go along.
It's eco, saving the planet by using less processing power lol
mostly running on solar for 8mths/yr

Had a look for KD on S1B but all I could find was this. Looks more like a plane. cffr

need to add the nullschool data and get the labelling sorted. Maybe best to use daily PS loc, though it will partially obscure the close buoys
looks like my original labelling is incorrect. There are quite a few other errors.
