MERRA fractional sea ice fieldsThese fractional sea ice fields were computed from the hourly FRSEAICE field. The movies show the time evolution of 1-day of fractional sea ice data. Activate the slide show option slide show (F5 key) to see movies.

•SEAICE00: Fraction of each grid box having < 10% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE10: Fraction of each grid box having 10-20% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE20: Fraction of each grid box having 20-30% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE30: Fraction of each grid box having 30-40% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE40: Fraction of each grid box having 40-50% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE50: Fraction of each grid box having 50-60% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE60: Fraction of each grid box having 60-70% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE70: Fraction of each grid box having 70-80% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE80: Fraction of each grid box having 80-90% sea ice coverage

•SEAICE90: Fraction of each grid box having > 90% sea ice coverage

For a given grid box (I,J) the sum of:SEAICE00(I,J) + SEAICE10(I,J) + SEAICE20(I,J) + SEAICE30(I,J) + SEAICE40(I,J) + SEAICE50(I,J) + SEAICE60(I,J) + SEAICE70(I,J) + SEAICE80(I,J) + SEAICE90(I,J) = 1.
