The observational data gap centred at the pole is filled via interpolation as described in the retrieval report: <a href=\"https://icdc.cen.uni-hamburg.de/fileadmin/user_upload/ESA_Sea-Ice-ECV_Phase2/SICCI_Phase2_SIV-Retrieval_Report_v02.pdf\">https://icdc.cen.uni-hamburg.de/fileadmin/user_upload/ESA_Sea-Ice-ECV_Phase2/SICCI_Phase2_SIV-Retrieval_Report_v02.pdf</a>. This report does also describe how uncertainties are estimated, and how the Envisat data are bias-corrected with respect to the CryoSat-2 data.
