The data were reprojected and interpolated from their original polar stereographic projection at 10km spatial resolution to the 4km Pathfinder Version 5.0 grid. A 5-day mean time series of sea ice was calculated, and from that a 5-day classic mean climatology was then calculated. _ChunkSizes: 1, 256, 256
