* Extent loss on this day 105k, which is 39 k more than the average loss on this day (of the last 10 years) of 66k,
* Extent loss from maximum on this date is 9,625 k, which is 469 k, 4.6% less than the 10 year average of 10,094 k.
* Extent is 10th lowest in the 49 year satellite record. Extent has been lowest for 37 days so far this year.
* Extent is 13 k LESS than 2025,
* Extent is 408 k MORE than 2024,
* Extent is 206 k MORE than 2023,
* Extent is 628 k MORE than 2020,
* Extent is 403 k MORE than 2016,
* Extent is 1,160 k MORE than 2012,
* Extent is 2,420 k LESS than the 1980's Average
* Extent is 39 k MORE than the 2010's Average
* Extent is 91 k MORE than the 2020-2025 Average.
On average 93.0% of Extent losses from maximum to minimum done, and 12 days to the average date of the minimum.
Projections. (See Table 4)
Average remaining Extent loss (of the last 10 years) would produce a minimum in September 2026 of 4.48 million km2, 1.14 million km2 above the September 2012 record low minimum of 3.34 million km2, and 10th lowest in the 49 year satellite record.
