  <dc:description>Abstract: ESA-CCI sea-ice-ecv phase2 project Envisat and CryoSat-2 monthly mean gridded Arctic sea-ice thickness and uncertainty estimates are combined with daily gridded Arctic satellite passive microwave sea-ice concentration observations and their uncertainties using the SICCI-2 algorithm derived within the same project to obtain an estimate of the Arctic Ocean monthly mean sea-ice volume during winter (October through April). The observational data gap centred at the pole is filled via interpolation as described in the retrieval report: https://icdc.cen.uni-hamburg.de/fileadmin/user_upload/ESA_Sea-Ice-ECV_Phase2/SICCI_Phase2_SIV-Retrieval_Report_v02.pdf. This report does also describe how uncertainties are estimated, and how the Envisat data are bias-corrected with respect to the CryoSat-2 data. The NSIDC sector Arctic Ocean can be viewed, e.g. from the following netCDF file https://icdc.cen.uni-hamburg.de/fileadmin/user_upload/icdc_Bilder/asi_sic/NSIDC-25km-grid__Arctic-SeaIceOutlook_region_masks__GridCellArea__UHAM-ICDC__fv0.01.nc or https://www.arcus.org/files/page/documents/28201/sio_mask.nc.
