FDDs N80 thru Nov 26, 2016

FDDs N80 thru Nov 26, 2016

Climatology: 1265 FDDs

2016: 598

Anomaly: -667

Implied new ice thickness:
Lebedev: Climatology 1.03m, 2016  0.67m
Berillo: Climatology 0.84m, 2016 0.54m

FDDs N80 thru 11-25-2016

FDDs thru Nov 25, 2016

Climatology: 1240 FDDs
2016: 582
Anomaly: -658

Implied new ice thickness:
Lebedev 0.65m
Berillo  0.53m

N70 - N80 FDDs Pacific side

Freezing Degree Days

Temperatures on the Pacific side from N70 to N80

Data from Nick Stokes'  moyhu arctic applet

Climatology would indicate about 890 accumulated FDDs to date
2016 appears to be around 400 accumulated FDDs

Using Lebedev new ice thickness reduces from 0.84m to 0.52m
Using Berillo new ice thickness reduces from 0.68m to 0.43m

Neither of these takes into account the actual date of first ice formation, this means they are likely biased high.
