This dataset consists of true-like sea ice concentration (SIC) data records over the Arctic Ocean, which was derived from the 30 m resolution imagery from the Operational Land Imager (OLI) onboard Landsat-8. Each SIC map are given in a 6.25 km polar stereographic grid, and are catalogued into one of the twelve sub-regions (Baffin Bay and Labarador Seas, Barents Sea, Beaufort Sea, Bering Sea, Canadian Archipelago, Central Arctic, Chukchi Sea, East Greenland Sea, East Siberian Sea, Hudson Bay, Kara Sea, Laptev Sea) of the Arctic Ocean. This dataset also contains the number of Landsat-8 pixels used in the calculation of each SIC values, the coastal mask, and the sub-region mask. The naming convention for the files is "sic_landsat08_{sub-region name}.nc". The dataset is in netCDF format and is compliant with the CF 1.8 and ACDD 1.3 convention for netCDF files. The description of the variables along with some key global attributes of the data are provide below. Global Attribute Meaning Attributes title Title of ...
