Baltic Sea Ice minimum 2005 to 2009 |
Short description |
Summary
Baltic Sea Ice Minimum 2005-2009 based on weather service observations on sea ice extent in the Baltic Sea from satellite observations.
Description
This dataset was compiled by Finnish Meteorological Institute (http://en.fmi.fi/) based on weather service observations on sea ice extent in the Baltic Sea from satellite observations (2005-2009). The minimum ice extent map displays the area which was covered by ice in every year of the study period. The maps were derived by digitizing existing ice extent maps to picture format and then to GIS shapefiles. Due to this reason the ice extent area should be considered as indicative especially within coastal areas. For further information, see http://www.iceservice.fi/. |
