This publication is the fifth in a continuing bi-yearly series of Antarctic sea ice atlases prepared in the Joint Ice Center at the Naval Polar Oceanography Center, Suitland. The atlas contains weekly charts depicting Southern Hemisphere ice conditions and extents. The information presented was prepared under operational time constraints principally from satellite imagery supplemented by conventional observations. Table 1 located on the inside back cover summarizes satellite data availability for 1981 and 1982.
