Warning: Microwave-based ASCAT sea ice classification may not be reliable during Northern summer months or melt periods (approximately May to September) because melting snow and ice have a distinct microwave radar return that may prevent accurate identification of ice type.\n\ncdm_data_type = Grid\nVARIABLES (all of which use the dimensions [time][altitude][rows][cols]):\nIceClass\n https://coastwatch.noaa.gov/erddap/info/noaacwSARciceclassnpoleDaily/index.htmlTable https://coastwatch.noaa.gov/ https://coastwatch.noaa.gov/erddap/rss/noaacwSARciceclassnpoleDaily.rss USDOC/NOAA/NESDIS PolarWatch noaacwSARciceclassnpoleDaily
