OK, but why you don’t use a black edge at the end of the segment to mark “min day” and use the right color for the segment? The graph will be clearer.

@Seke Rob
“Expanded Million Step Chart” nice graph, but why you don’t add “<5M Day” and delete “MinDay” ?

@Seke Rob
In your map, you use the CT map instead of MASIE map and the regions of Beaufort Sea, Chukchi Sea and East Siberian Sea are very different in the two maps

Hi all,
Break-up ?!!
Barrow Break-up 3
This blog post was preceded by Barrow Break-up 1 and Barrow Break-up 2 (both containing more general info). The Sea Ice Group of the Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska Fairbanks has been issuing break-up forecasts for almost three weeks now. Their current forecast is for the groun...

New break in the Nares Strait

2011 Nares Strait Animation
Now that the formidable ice plug in Smith Channel has finally broken up (see this blog post from a few days ago) the rest of the ice in Nares Strait gets a chance to start moving. The coming days a high pressure system is forecast to roam the area, meaning 1) high temperatures and insolation t...
Sorry, in my first post the right text is "north of Queen Elizabeth Island” and not “north of Ellesmere” as i write, and in the last post “but 250m picture is better” is more clear

It is remarkable the differences for the fast ice north of Ellesmere Island (bottom right of pictures; the last refuge, ice with the north of Greenland, for the multiyear)

I see two crack, the first very near right after a stick (the little dark mark in the centre of the picture), and the other more far.
The ice continues to move (and I think always left to right).
Michael, I think too that this camera not survives the melt season.
I not find analogous in the previous years and the animation project is a very good idea!!

@Patrice
1) The opening and closing are very fast
2) The other side has moved
3) The opening is not caused by “extreme cold” and not any “freeze again” and “temperatures rises”
No, I don’t see any link between what we see and the description from Wikipedia

Sorry, is it normal a beginning of melt north of Corn-Wallis Island / west of Devon Island (Queen Elizabeth Islands) in the month of may?
