on Naval and Maritime Operations

Arctic Sea Ice Retreat - Animation
(courtesy of the NOAA Environmental Visualization Lab)

The concentration and extent of sea ice in the Arctic has been on the decline since the mid-1990's. Data collected by the Defense Meteorological Satellites Program (DMSP) satellite's SSM/I sensor is shown here for 2007 - 2008. These two years had the lowest ice extents on record since satellite observations first began.
