If yous choose a calendar month from the timeline yous tin non exclusively persuasion the extent of the ocean H2O ice coverage for that calendar month exactly also a draw of piece of occupation graph showing the full H2O ice expanse inward km2 as well as the temperature anomaly higher upwards the norm over time. The graph shows a clear tendency of ascension temperatures inward the Arctic as well as a autumn inward the expanse of ocean H2O ice coverage.
The polar projection inward the Arctic Sea Ice map was created amongst D3.js. You tin easily practise your ain polar projection inward Leaflet using Arctic Web Map, an Arctic specific spider web mapping tool, consisting of an Arctic-focused tile server. If yous desire to know how Mapbox created their polar projection thus read the explanation beneath the map on the Mapbox blog.
