Figure-5.2: Snow cover fraction and sea ice concentration trends, 1981–2015
![](https://changingclimate.ca/site/assets/uploads/sites/2/2018/11/Figure-5.2-1024x887.png)
Terrestrial snow cover fraction and sea ice concentration seasonal trends for 1981–2015. Stippling indicates statistical significance (there is only a 10% possibility that such changes are due to chance). Dashed line denotes limit of Canadian marine territory. Changes in sea ice are discussed in Section 5.3.
