We compared our new lead product to other lead products - not straightforward! Because all sensors measure different lead properties, the results can be quite different. We suggest to distinguish between "open-water fraction" and "lead fraction including thin ice".

We derived a time series of lead fractions for the yearlong MOSAiC
drift campaign (2019/2020) showing different phases of high and low lead activity.

We looked at leads of different ages from 0 to 10 days old.

Does that fit with your observations of the sea ice dynamics? - Let us know!
