The original data of the Arctic and Antarctic sea ice data set is generated by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) through remote sensing data. The data format is GeoTIFF format and image format. The spatial resolution of the data is 25km and the time resolution is day. The data content is the sea ice range and sea ice density of the north and south poles. In this study, NetCDF format products are generated by post-processing the extent and density of sea ice in the north and south poles. The product data includes the sea ice range and sea ice density data of the north and south poles from 1979 to 2019. The time resolution is day by day, the coverage range is the South Pole and the north pole, and the horizontal spatial resolution is 12.5km. The data value of 1 in the sea ice range matrix indicates that the grid is sea ice, and the sea ice density is expressed by 0-1000. The grid value divided by 10 is the sea ice density value of the grid.

Sea ice is the ice formed by the freezing of sea water on the sea surface, and the re freezing of precipitation on the sea ice surface also becomes a part of sea ice. Sea ice changes not only affect the stratification, stability and convection of the ocean, but also affect the large-scale temperature and salt environment. In addition, due to the high albedo and insulation of sea ice, it can change the radiation state of the polar surface and affect the energy and material exchange between air and sea. The change of sea ice not only affects the local marine ecological environment and the local atmospheric environment, but also affects the weather and climate of other regions in the way of remote correlation through complex feedback process. Through the evaluation, this data set presents four parameters related to polar sea ice: sea ice density, range, thickness and albedo. To provide a basis for the study of polar and global climate change.

Because of its unique natural conditions and geographical location, the Arctic region plays a very important role in global change. Polar sea ice, as an important influencing factor of climate change, is a sensitive instrument of global climate change. The Yellow River Station, one of China's research stations in the Arctic, focuses on supporting the three scientific fields of global change and its regional response, the polar space environment and space climate, and the life characteristics and processes in the polar environment, providing an important platform for China's in-depth scientific research activities in the Arctic. Therefore, the product data set of data validation for key areas of Arctic sea ice in recent years is constructed to monitor the key areas of Arctic sea ice.

1) This data is the reconstructed autumn sea ice from 1289 to 1993 in Barents Kara Sea, Arctic ; 2) Based on multiple statistical methods modeling, this sea ice time series is reconstructed by the ice core and tree ring proxy record; 3) This long term sea ice series is annual resolution and have a high reliability; 4) This data can help us know the historical changes of Arctic sea ice and its response and impact on climate change. The Barents Sea Kara Sea area is the key sea area where the extreme cold air flows southward in winter and spring in China. However, the lack of observation data limits our understanding of its mechanism. It is very important to reconstruct the characteristics of long-term Arctic sea ice change to study the Arctic sea ice change in the global context and its impact on China's historical climate.

The data sets include four sets of data obtained from the Scanning Multi-channel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR), Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) and the Special Sensor Microwave Imager Sounder (SSMIS) sensors using passive microwave remote sensing inversion. SMMR was aboard the Nimbus-7 satellite, and its working period was from October 26, 1978 to July 8, 1987. Since July 1987, the data provided by the SSM/I and the SSMIS aboard the US Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) satellite group have been used. The first three data sets contain sea ice concentration data, covering the Antarctic region with a spatial resolution of 25 km: (1) The data were obtained from Nimbus-7 SMMR and DMSP SSM/I-SSMIS Version 1 by applying the NASA Team algorithm inversion. The temporal coverage is from November 1978 to February 2017, with a temporal resolution of one month. A bin file is stored every month. (2) The data source is the same as the first set. The temporal coverage is from 1978-10-26 to 2017-2-28. The temporal resolution is two days, and the spatial resolution is 25 km. A folder was stored every year, and a bin file was stored every other day. (3) The data were obtained from near-real-time DMSP SSMIS by applying the NASA Team algorithm inversion. The temporal coverage is from 2015-1-1 to 2018-2-3, and the temporal resolution is one day. A bin file is stored every day. Each file consists of a 300-byte file title (data time information, projection pattern, file name) and a 316*332 matrix. The fourth set of data is the sea ice coverage and sea ice area time series. The temporal coverage is from November 1978 to December 2017. This data set is a time series sequence of sea ice coverage and sea ice area in the Antarctic. The temporal resolution is one month, and an ASCII file is stored every month. Each file consists of a file title (time, data type), a 39*1 sea ice cover matrix and a 39*1 sea ice area matrix.
