fast-ice

Matlab functions for loading Alex Fraser's fast ice dataset.

Contents

  • fastice_data_download downloads all 19 years of fast ice data.
  • fastice_data loads gridded data for any specified year of the fortnightly fast ice data.
  • fastice_data_autumn loads gridded data corresponding to early March of every year (because coastline mapping is only updated once a year, each March).

Getting Started

  1. Install Antarctic Mapping Tools for Matlab.
  2. Get the data. The simplest thing is to run fastice_data_download, which will download all the data (It's a big dataset and it takes a while.) If your firewall settings prevent fastice_data_download from running, you can manually download the data here.
