Uncertainties due to spatial resolution (E R ) of gridded sea-ice thickness (z) distributions remain largely unquantified. We address this issue using remotely sensed and in situ observations of the Southern Ocean (south of −60°) to determine appropriate data sources based on length scales for conti...
