Satellite-observed drop of Arctic sea ice growth in winter 2015-2016
International audience An anomalous warm winter 2015-2016 lead to the lowest winter ice extent and highlights the sensitivity of the Arctic sea ice. Here we use the 6 year record of an improved sea ice thickness product retrieved from data fusion of CryoSat-2 radar altimetry and Soil Moisture and Oc...
