Also see the papers published in the Proceedings of the Societas Internationalis Limnologiae (SIL) XXVII Congress, 9-14 August, Dublin, Ireland, 1998.The Global Lake and River Ice Phenology Database contains freeze and thaw/breakup dates as well as other descriptive ice cover data for 865 lakes and rivers in the Northern Hemisphere. Of the 542 water bodies that have records longer than 19 years, 370 of them are in North America and 172 are in Eurasia. 249 lakes and rivers have records longer than 50 years, and 66 have records longer than 100 years. A few water bodies have data available prior to 1845. This database, with water bodies distributed around the Northern Hemisphere, allows for the analysis of broad spatial patterns as well as long-term temporal patterns.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttps://dx.doi.org/10.7265/N5W66HP8DocumentationGET DATAhttps://noaadata.apps.nsidc.org/NOAA/G01377/HTTPSPROJECT HOME PAGEhttp://nsidc.org/data/lake_river_ice/Search DatabaseUSA/NOAACEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92000-12-012026-01-26NSIDCVersion SummaryInitial release.NSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCUpdate Frequencyupdated 2020NSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCLevel of ServiceComprehensiveNSIDCFull Dataset CitationBenson, B., Magnuson, J. & Sharma, S.
