June 6, 2024:  The Arctic sea ice has continued to decrease this week at a greater (double) rate of 5.12% (as opposed to last week’s decrease rate of 2.53%), from the level on 05/30/2024 of 12.097 M km² to 11.478 M km² for this week.

The  negative sea ice anomaly this week was higher than the anomaly of -0.163 M km² on 05/30/2024 to a greater negative anomaly of -0.442 M km² on 06/06/2024, and so more anomalously negative for this time of year.
