Brief description
This dataset provides the dataset underlying Figure 2 from the following publication: Fraser, A. D., Massom, R. A., Handcock, M. S., Reid, P., Ohshima, K. I., Raphael, M. N., Cartwright, J., Klekociuk, A. R., Wang, Z., and Porter-Smith, R.: Eighteen-year record of circum-Antarctic landfast-sea-ice distribution allows detailed baseline characterisation and reveals trends and variability, The Cryosphere, 15, 5061–5077, https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-15-5061-2021, 2021. It gives a map of the long-term (2000-2018) mean persistence of Antarctic landfast ice by simply averaging across the time dimension.Lineage
