seaice_global_daily_basic (Characterizations of sea ice are area, extent and volume, integrated over each hemisphere, and reported daily. Similarly, snow on sea ice can be characterised by its total mass. The diagnostics demanded here represent the best estimates from the modelling groups, expert of their model and the corresponding land masks and grids.)
