Interesting site. Did you click on the temp maps for both water and air temps?
Click on the East Siberian Sea…..those are all icebreakers…and one tanker
I ask you, if it’s “ice free”, why are they spending all that money using icebreakers?
I like this map the best for looking at this area in terms of ice:

At the level of ice “health” we’ve seen the last few years, shipping doesn’t make any sense yet…what does one do?…have a few ships ready to dart through when it opens for 1 or 2 weeks? The hazard pay/insurance would probably result in little total benefit.
