Line graph time series of 2023's daily global sea ice extent anomalies in red shading compared to each year from 1979 to 2022 using shades of purple to white for each line. The year 2016 is also highlighted in yellow, which is the current absolute magnitude record low. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1981-2010 baseline. There is substantial interannual and daily variability. Data from the NSIDC.
