The recent sea ice conditions in the Sea of Okhotsk (abstract)
Systematic sea ice observations in Japan were started by the Hokkaido prefectural office in 1892. The observational stations were located at Abashiri, Nemuro and Soya along the Sea of Okhotsk coast of Hokkaido. Observations of aircraft were started in 1935,and coastal radars and satellites in the 19...

Systematic sea ice observations in Japan were started by the Hokkaido prefectural office in 1892. The observational stations were located at Abashiri, Nemuro and Soya along the Sea of Okhotsk coast of Hokkaido. Observations of aircraft were started in 1935,and coastal radars and satellites in the 1960's. The Japan Meteorological Agency analyzes these sea ice observation data and announces the sea ice forecast and information.
