Recall that in a recent post on the Beaufort Sea ice extent comparison offered by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) here, I commented:
“What puzzled me was why they featured only the last 7 years when satellite data go back to at least 1979. Is there something in that data they don’t want us to see?”
…….
It’s apparent from these maps that the much later summer breakup of ice in Baffin Bay ice compared to Davis Strait is what Rode and colleagues don’t want us to see.
