Computer Simulation of the Influence on Sea Ice Concentration Caused by Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Level Pressure

In this paper, focusing on the Northwest Passage, we looked into the relevance between sea surface temperature(SST), sea level pressure(SLP) and the reducing amount of annual sea ice concentration (May minus September) based on the NSST daily average data from NASA MODISA, SLP monthly average data from NCEP and AMSR-E sea ice concentration product with the resolution of 6.25 kilometers from the year 2002 to 2010.
