Movie ID Title
This sequence shows Arctic sea ice thickness derived from winter and fall campaigns from the ICESat satellite. Sea ice grows extent grows in the summer and shrinks in the winter. While the sea ice extent might look similar from year to year this thickness data shows dramatic thinning especially near the North Pole (shown in dark blue). This image was generated with data acquired between Feb 17 - Mar 21, 2008. 3593 Fall and Winter Arctic Sea Ice Thickness Declining Rapidly

While the sea ice extent might look similar from year to year this thickness data shows dramatic thinning especially near the North Pole (shown in dark blue). This image was generated with data acquired between Oct 4 - Oct 19, 2008. 3592 Fall Arctic Sea Ice Thickness Declining Rapidly

The short version of the Cryosphere Tour, with narration and music. 3355 A Short Tour of the Cryosphere
VIDEO WITH MUSIC AND CAPTIONS 3181 A Tour of the Cryosphere
Designed exclusively for playback on spherical projections surfaces, FROZEN introduces mainstream audiences to the cryosphere--places on Earth where the temperatures don't rise above water's freezing point. The following trailer showcases some of the visual themes contained in the movie and points to the film's main website.<p><p>This film has been prepared exclusively for playback on spherical projections systems. It will not appear in its proper format on a traditional computer or television screen.

This is a conceptual animation showing how polar ice reflects light from the sun. As this ice begins to melt, less sunlight gets reflected into space. It is instead absorbed into the oceans and land, raising the overall temperature, and fueling further melting. 10160 Global Ice Albedo ALTERNATE
This animation illustrates a cutaway of the high altitude accumulation zones and low altitude melt zones. 10152 Greenland Ice Mass Balance
