On sea-ice advance and retreat in the Indian Ocean sector and off Lutzow-Holmbukta, Antarctica
Characteristics of sea ice variations in the Indian Ocean sector and off Lutzow-Holmbukta, Antarctica, have been described with satellite data archived since the 1970s. In the Indian Ocean sector, the period of maximum ice extent is generally reached in October, a month later than in other sectors....
