Data set update: ICESat-2 L4 Along-Track Sea Ice Thickness, Version 1 (IS2SITDAT4)

The ICESat-2 L4 Along-Track Sea Ice Thickness, Version 1 (IS2SITDAT4) data set, accessible through the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC), has been updated to include data for the period from 1 September 2021 to 31 March 2022. This data set reports daily, along-track winter sea ice thickness across the Arctic Ocean. Sea ice thickness is estimated using ATLAS/ICESat-2 L3A Sea Ice Freeboard (ATL10), Version 5 data and NASA Eulerian Snow On Sea Ice Model (NESOSIM) snow loading.
