Arctic sea ice extent has been steadily declining in recent decades while A ntarctic sea ice extent has in general changed far less dramatically than A rctic ice. Sea ice observations, remote sensing and modeling are critical t o improveour understanding of the changes that are occurring to the Arctic and Antarctic sea ice cover. The objectives of this workshop are to discuss cross-cutting issues in sea ice observations, remote sensing and modelling and how deficiencies of current systems can be more efficiently addressed. \n\n - General topics considered appropriate for this workshop include:\n - Sea ice observations and uncertainties\n - Remote sensing capabilities for sea ice\n - Sea ice model parameterizations and coupling to ocean and atmo sphere models\n - Sea ice data assimilation (methods and results)\n - Verif ication approaches for sea-ice analysis and forecastThe workshop will be or ganized around keynote and contributed presentations with ample time for di scussion.
