The Newfoundland ice extent and the solar cycle from 1860-1988
Sea ice conditions off the east coast of Newfoundland for the last 130 years are presented, forming what is believed to be the longest ice record for the Northwestern Atlantic. Because of differences in how these data were originally collected, the series is divided into two sets, before and after 1...
