Ice on the Cube for ECCO

Effective ice thickness (ice thickness times concentration) from cube-sphere integration (cube5) in the Arctic and the Antarctic. Colorscale ranges from 0 m (dark blue) and saturates at 2 m (dark red). Thin white line shows sea-ice extent (15% concentration) from passive microwave radiometer (SSM/I).

Another visualization of Arctic sea-ice displays transparent simulated ice overlaid on top of 15-m ocean current speed.
