EASE-Grid Sea Ice Age, Version 4

This data set provides weekly estimates of sea ice age for the Arctic Ocean derived from remotely sensed sea ice motion and sea ice extent. The temporal coverage for this data set is January 1984 through December 2019. For more recent data, see the Quicklook Arctic Weekly EASE-Grid Sea Ice Age data product (https://nsidc.org/data/nsidc-0749).
