The area is evaluated using the Canadian Ice Service Digital Archive and is expressed in thousands or millions of square kilometres. The Sea Ice in Canada indicators are provided for the Northern Canadian Waters, by sub-region and for the Northwest Passage. The indicators also present trends in total ice area and multi-year sea ice area. Multi-year sea ice is defined as sea ice that has survived at least one summer's melt”--Description, p. 12.
