These sea ice concentration data are retrieved with the ARTIST Sea Ice (ASI) algorithm (Spreen et al., 2008) which is applied to microwave radiometer data of the sensors AMSR-E (Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for EOS) on the NASA satellite Aqua, and AMSR2 (Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2) on the JAXA satellite GCOM-W1. The ASI algorithm using AMSR-E data was first implemented at IUP in 2002 and has been continuously producing sea ice concentration data since then. As several details of the processing chain have changed over the years, in 2018, all ASI ice concentration data for the Arctic and Antarctic based on AMSR-E and AMSR2 were reprocessed with exactly the same parameters, settings and software. The result are ASI data, version 5.4. The details are explained in the following sections.

This dataset consists of high-precision GNSS observation data collected from January to May 2025 at King Sejong Station, King George Island, Antarctica. The data can be used for monitoring crustal movements, surface stability, and glacial displacement in polar geophysical research.
This dataset presents a new catalogue of active subglacial lakes beneath Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica, identified using CryoSat-2 satellite radar altimetry. It details the boundaries, areas, and elevation changes of each lake, complete with 95% confidence intervals. The dataset also contains estimates of ice speed changes in the TG's grounding zone.

The tidal observation equipment at the King Sejong Station in Antarctica was installed by the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency in December 2019. The equipment measures tidal waves at 1-minute intervals by measuring changes in water pressure according to sea level height in harsh Antarctic environments such as sea ice.
