January 18, 2024:  The sea ice has continued to increase, but at a much lesser rate of 0.81% (from last week’s growth rate of 3.38%), from the level on 01/11/2024 of 13.920 M km2 to 14.034 M km2 for this week. The negative sea ice anomaly this week was less than the anomaly of -0.096 M km2 on 01/04/2024 to a smaller negative anomaly of -0.046 […]

January 11, 2024:  The sea ice has continued to increase, but at a lesser rate of 3.38% (from last week’s growth rate of 3.93%), from the level on 01/04/2024 of 13.449 M km2 to 13.920 M km2 for this week. It is still a bit hard to see the new 2024 line, but it is there and will become more easily read in the

January 4, 2024:  The sea ice has continued to increase, but at a greater rate of 3.93% (from last week’s growth rate of 2.44%), from the level on 12/28/2023 of 12.921 M km2 to 13.449 M km2 for this week. It is a bit hard to see the new 2024 line, but it is there and will become more easily read in the next

December 28 2023:  The sea ice has continued to increase, but at a lesser rate of 2.44% (from last week’s growth rate of 4.37%), from the level on 12/21/2023 of 12.606 M km2 to 12.921 M km2 for this week. The negative sea ice anomaly evolved from -0.136 M km2 on 12/21/2023 to a greater negative anomaly of -0.244 M km2 on 12/28/2023, and so is more anomalously
