JAXA/MASIE Sea Ice Extent (Antarctic and Arctic and Global) – Day 164 – 2016

A couple of days ago I pointed out one of the other ice indexes (DMI) had now crossed over the 2012 track.

MASIE (see bottom) is now very close (4300 sq km — but it was 2011 not 2012). JAXA is still 300,000 sq km below 2012.
