Sea ice duration or the time elapse between day of advance and day of retreat within a given sea ice year for the PAL LTER region West of the Antarctic Peninsula derived from passive microwave satellite, 1978 - 2019.
Sea ice duration is defined as the time elapse between day of advance and day of retreat within a given sea ice year, which begins mid-February (mean minimum of summer sea ice extent for the Southern Ocean) and ends the following mid-February. See Stammerjohn et al (2008, JGR) for further details. D...
