Polar Sea Ice Remains Above Long-Term Average

Polar Sea Ice Remains Above Long-Term Average | Heartlander Magazine:
"Viewed together, Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent shows little if any trend during the past 34 years.
During the latter half of the past decade, global sea ice frequently fell to between 5 and 10 percent below the sea ice extent measured in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but polar ice extent in 2013 has surpassed the long-term average."
