C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png Key Takeaways Important to NWS (Alaska Sea Ice Program, ASIP) Data to help identify Ice Edge, Shorefast Ice, and Old Ice Need to hear more from the modelers and get more involved with sea ice modeling Higher resolution data in areas that are most important (near events, shoreline) are preferred; the finer the better but it s also a trade-off Cloud cover is an issue, especially in Alaska Users are hoping to utilize Ice Motion and blended Ice Motion The product demonstrations that JPSS leads are good ways to introduce and use JPSS level-2 products C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-08.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-08.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-07.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-07.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-06.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-06.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-05.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-05.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-04.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-04.png G:\STALL\ST Comms\Templates Resources\Logos\Other Emblems\DOC Logo\DOC Color.png Department of Commerce // National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration // 2
C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png Key Challenges for Users National Ice Center Data Latency to the operations floor Data Formatting (reformatting load on system) File sizes/system lags Upstream product quality (Cloud Mask) for downstream use (Sea Ice Thickness) C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-08.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-08.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-07.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-07.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-06.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-06.png NWS/ASIP Cloud Cover General Each LEO Satellite varies in instrument configurations and capabilities C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-05.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-05.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-04.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-04.png G:\STALL\ST Comms\Templates Resources\Logos\Other Emblems\DOC Logo\DOC Color.png Department of Commerce // National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration // 3
C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png Key Challenges for Developers Improving snow water equivalent (SWE) and ice thickness products with only NOAA satellites. Blended products with in situ and non-NOAA satellites may be necessary. C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-08.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-08.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-07.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-07.png Cloud masks need to be improved for the high latitudes, particularly in winter. Integrating sea ice data into the models. More interaction with modelers would be beneficial. C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-06.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-06.png Demonstrations with ASIP ice analysts have been productive and should be continued and expanded to include NIC.
