Sea Ice Outlook: 2023 September Report
Outlook Report
Executive Summary
We thank those dedicated participants who contributed to this 2023 September Sea Ice Outlook (SIO) report and all the reports for this year. The 2023 September Sea Ice Outlook received 22 submissions (29 in August, 30 in July, 38 in June). These outlook contributions are based on various methods, including dynamical (physics-based) models, statistical approaches including machine-learning (ML), and heuristic (qualitative). Along with projections of total Arctic sea-ice extent for September, the September SIO received five projections of Antarctic
