as for the #Arctic, we are now up to 156 days (~49% of year-to-date) of new daily record minimum sea ice extents in 2016 (JAXA)pic.twitter.com/5tMIJJDKRZ
This is not normal. Global #seaice area...

Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. Undo

ugh, and essentially no growth in Arctic sea ice with today's update (~7,300 km^2 increase, JAXA) as the stall continuespic.twitter.com/6ftaGmRi5B

Drop in sea ice area may mean that the average sea ice depth hiked keeping sea ice volume the same. How do you like this hypothesis?
-
we should have a better sense of current Arctic sea ice thickness/volume by the end of November
-
Zack, what is the maximum historic annual change in sea ice depth?
-
there is a great page from
@PolarScience_UW with information on sea ice thickness/volume: http://psc.apl.uw.edu/research/projects/arctic-sea-ice-volume-anomaly/ …

seriously? Ugh, so so wrong...

and someone's sabotaging the buoys too, it seems - http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/climate-change/arctic-warming-rapidly-increasing-temperatures-are-possibly-catastrophic-for-planet-climate-a6896671.html …

such a challenging time for communications... science says one, politics say another. It is no wonder there is public confusion

Something wrong with graph? Official ones don't look anywhere so scary: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global-snow/201609 … http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/charctic-interactive-sea-ice-graph/ …pic.twitter.com/Nan3njItwe

this is combined Arctic/Antarctic sea ice for "area"... not extent
-
Aha, so according to this FAQ "extent" is bigger and potentially more accurate than "area": http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/faq/#area_extent …
-
-
Now I see: in official ones Y values go from 0, in these Y values are truncated so it exaggerates. Still scary though not apocalyptic

@markbao as far as visualization goes, temporal trends a bit hard to read. How about long ago = more transparent, all same color? -
this isn't my figure, but I have a collection of long-term sea ice trends here of my own: http://sites.uci.edu/zlabe/arctic-sea-ice-figures/ …
