Sea ice extent. Metadata

The BP Web Map Service presents selected historical ice chart of sea-ice observations in the Arctic region between 30ºW and 70ºE based on ACSYS HISTORICAL ICE CHART ARCHIVE, (1553 – 2002). In BarentsPortal selected historical data are presented together with sea-ice extent during the last 10 -15 years.

BarentsPortal financed in 2009 a project with goals to present selected historical sea-ice data, and to aggregate satellite maps showing sea-ice in the Barents Sea during the last 10-15 years.
