Sea Ice Outlook: 2024 September Report

We thank all the groups and individuals who submitted Outlooks to the Sea Ice Outlook. The 2024 June–September SIO reports will be limited to the pan-Arctic forecasts while we work to secure funding to support the continuation of the SIO. Please note that all the contributed data (e.g., Alaska, Antarctic, and spatial forecasts) will be shared and discussed in a post-season report (in early 2025).
