Chartic Interactive Sea Ice Graph

Annual updates are made to record minimums or maximums, meaning that a newly-established record may not immediately appear on the chart until after the annual update has been completed. To access data from additional years, simply click on the dates provided in the legend. Hovering over the line on the chart will display the daily sea ice extent values. Users can zoom in on specific areas of the chart by clicking and dragging their mouse. Clicking on a line in the chart will provide a corresponding daily sea ice concentration image, as sea ice extent is derived from sea ice concentration.
