Unified sea ice thickness climate data record, Version 1

This data set targets the wealth of data that are now available from moored and submarine-based upward looking sonar (ULS) instruments, airborne electromagnetic (EM) induction instruments, and satellite altimeters (IceSat/CryoSat). These instruments offer adequate sampling dating from 1948 to establish the mean ice thickness and thickness distribution for scales generally appropriate for change detection and climate model validations.
