ESA Sea Ice Climate Change Initiative (Sea Ice CCI) Dataset Collection

Collection of datasets from the ESA Sea Ice Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. The Sea Ice CCI is developing improved and validated timeseries of ice concentration for the Arctic and Antarctic and ice thickness datasets for the Arctic to support climate research and monitoring. Since sea ice is a sensitive climate indicator with large seasonal and regional variability, the climate research community require long-term and regular observations of the key ice parameters in both Arctic and Antarctic.
