After a couple of days of substantial ice increase, and given the time of the month, I think it is safe to say that the ice extent minimum has been reached. Both IJIS JAXA and NSIDC agree on the date - 16 September. The numbers were:
Date | Extent million sq km | |
IJIS JAXA | 16 Sept | 3.489063 |
NSIDC | 16 Sept | 3.36855 |
