Abstract

Aiming at the low-resolution problem of sea ice concentration (SIC) re-analysis products, the ordinary Kriging algorithm and the improved co-Kriging algorithm were used to obtain higher resolution data. The Gaussian model and spherical model were selected respectively to perform spatial fine interpolation of SIC, and the accuracy of the interpolation results in Arctic navigable waters was tested and analyzed. The results show that the variogram, covariable and target interpolation precision have great influence on the interpolation performance of ordinary Kriging algorithm and co-Kriging algorithm, and the spherical model still has high interpolation accuracy under extreme data conditions. Kriging algorithm can be used for interpolation prediction of polar SIC with different models according to different actual requirements, so as to provide higher resolution SIC data for polar ships and serve the safe navigation of polar ships.
