Description:This work assesses the AMSR2 (the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2) ice extent and ice edge in the Arctic using the ice extent products of NOAA’s Interactive Multisensor Snow and Ice Mapping System (IMS) from the period of July 2015 to July 2019. Daily values and monthly means of four statistical scores (hit rate, false alarm ratio, false alarm rate, and Hanssen-Kuiper Skill Score) over the Arctic Ocean show distinct annual cycles. IMS ice edges often extend further south compared to those from AMSR2, with up to 100 km differences over the Beaufort, Chukchi, and East Siberian Seas in August and September.
