Claim: As of today,JAXA shows that we have more ice than any time on this date for the past 8 years of Aqua satellite measurement for this AMSRE dataset."

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 1
Passage: Aqua carries six instruments for studies of water on the Earth's surface and in the atmosphere, of which four are still operating: Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS (AMSR-E) — measures cloud properties, sea surface temperature, near-surface wind speed, radiative energy flux, surface water, ice and snow.

Passage: Cooler A telemetry became frozen on March 24, 2014, but this had no impact on science gathering.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 1
Passage: Starting from 1979 with Hakucho (CORSA-b), for nearly two decades Japan had achieved continuous observation with its Hinotori, Tenma, Ginga and ASCA (ASTRO-A through D) x-ray observation satellites.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 1
Passage: However, due to various reasons,[specify] both satellites had a much shorter than expected life term.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 1
Passage: Using the mapper's reflectance spectra, indirect lighting of areas in shadow confirmed water ice within 20° latitude of both poles in 2018.

Passage: Play media Satellite measurements of Greenland's ice cover from 1979 to 2009 reveals a trend of increased melting.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: In the past, the Earth's oceans have been almost entirely covered by sea ice on a number of occasions, when the Earth was in a so-called Snowball Earth state, and completely ice-free in periods of warm climate.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Estimates of how long the Arctic Ocean has had perennial ice cover vary.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Although the most common measure of global warming is the increase in the near-surface atmospheric temperature, over 90% of the additional energy stored in the climate system over the last 50 years has warmed ocean water.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Antarctic sea ice extent gradually increased in the period of satellite observations, which began in 1979, until a rapid decline in southern hemisphere spring of 2016.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Large-scale measurements of sea-ice have only been possible since the satellite era, but through looking at a number of different satellite estimates, it has been determined that September Arctic sea ice has decreased between 1973 and 2007 at a rate of about -10% +/- 0.3% per decade.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: [1] In their latest study (September 20, 2007) NASA researchers have confirmed that Antarctic snow is melting farther inland from the coast over time, melting at higher altitudes than ever and increasingly melting on Antarctica's largest ice shelf.

Passage: "Ice melting across globe at accelerating rate, NASA says."
