Description
Summary: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, and the 6.25 km coastal area mask. The naming convention for the files are "sic_landsat08_YYYYMMDD_PPPRRR.nc" following: YYYYMMDD: Date of Landsat-8 scene PPPRRR: Landsat-8 orbit location in reference to the Worldwide Reference System-2 The dataset is in netCDF format and the names of headers and variables and their respective meanings are as follows: Header Name Meaning ...
