Seeing it yourself, and interacting with the data to get a feel for the data is much better. This app downloads northern hemisphere satellite images so you can compare arcitc sea ice extent over the years with your part of the world.
The plot overlays Minimum Sea Ice Extent in the selected starting year in blue, and Minimum Sea Ice Extent in a selected end year 2022 in red over your chosen selection of subregions. The projection aligns the centroids of the ice extent and world/subregion maps shapes.
