Polar Pathfinder Daily 25 km EASE-Grid Sea Ice Motion Vectors, Version 4
This data set contains daily and weekly sea ice motion vectors, as well as browse images representing the weekly data. Input data sources, derived from AVHRR, AMSRE, SMMR, SSMI, and SSMI/S sensors; IABP buoys; and NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis forecasts, used to generate the daily and weekly sea ice motion estimates are also included. For more recent data, see the Quicklook Arctic Weekly EASE-Grid Sea Ice Motion Vectors data set (https://nsidc.org/data/nsidc-0748).
