Sea ice extent, concentration, and seasonality [in 'State of the Climate in 2019']
Antarctic sea ice plays a pivotal role in the global climate system. Forming a highly reflective,dynamic, and insulative blanket that varies seasonally in its areal coverage from ~3 106 km 2 to ~1920 106 km 2 , sea ice and its snow cover strongly modifies oceanatmosphere fluxes andinteraction proces...
