From the IARC-JAXA Information System website:
"The IARC-JAXA Information System (IJIS) is a geoinformatics facility for satellite image analysis and computational modeling/visualization in support of international collaboration in Arctic and global change research at the International Arctic Research Center in corporation with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)."
The website's graph of the Arctic ice extent shows that 2009 represents a 7-year high in such extent. To see this graph, go to this page.
