GCIP/ESOP-97 Surface: National Ice Center Great Lakes Ice Cover Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/17.009 Summary The National Ice Center is a multi-agency operational center that represents the US Navy, the US Coast Guard, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Via their WWW page they have available Great Lakes ice cover data for the winter of 1996-1997. These data include WMO sea/freshwater ice symbology charts ("egg code").
