Data sets
Southern Ocean marine sediment core sea-ice records for the last 150,000 years M. Chadwick, X. Crosta, O. Esper, and K. E. Kohfeld https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.943275
Short summary
Despite its importance in the global climate, our knowledge of Antarctic sea-ice changes throughout the last glacial–interglacial cycle is extremely limited. As part of the Cycles of Sea Ice Dynamics in the Earth system (C-SIDE) Working Group, we review marine- and ice-core-based sea-ice proxies to provide insights into their applicability and limitations. By compiling published records, we provide information on Antarctic sea-ice dynamics over the past 130 000 years.
