Dates of sea ice movement and sea ice distance in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica from MODIS and SSMI imagery between 1978-2015

<p>This dataset contains dates relevant to sea ice movement including dates of initial ice retreat, final ice retreat, ice minimum, general ice minimum, ice minimum for the west of McMurdo Sound, ice minimum for the east of McMurdo Sound, and refreeze start.&nbsp; It also includes the minimum distance to the ice edge from McMurdo Station. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Dates were derived from Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers (MODIS) collected between 2003 and 2015 and Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer and Special Sensor Microwave Imager-family passive microwave sensors (SSM/I) imagery collected between 1978 and 2015.</p>

本数据集包含与海冰运动相关的多类日期数据，具体包括初始海冰消融日期、最终海冰消融日期、海冰极小值日期、全域海冰极小值日期、麦克默多湾（McMurdo Sound）西部海冰极小值日期、麦克默多湾东部海冰极小值日期以及海冰重新冻结起始日期。此外，数据集还涵盖麦克默多站（McMurdo Station）至海冰边缘的最小距离。

本次数据集的日期数据源自2003年至2015年采集的中分辨率成像光谱仪（Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers，MODIS）影像，以及1978年至2015年采集的扫描多通道微波辐射计与专用传感器微波成像仪系列被动微波传感器（Special Sensor Microwave Imager-family passive microwave sensors，SSM/I）影像数据。
