MODICEv02 for Upper Indus tiles, change from minimum MODICE for 3 years from 2001-2003 to minimum MODICE for 3 years from 2010-2012. This is MODICEv02, so annual images are produced from 365 days. There were no "never_seen" pixels. Note the internal ice areas that are dark (meaning the minimum MODICE dropped below 15%, and so turned off. Is this showing up "one strike and you're out"?

tifs with data for top 2 images are on sidads ftp. Values are 0-100 (minimum modscag for respective period, and 255 for locations outside Indus basin.

Time series, MODICE v1 (from our paper)
Time series, new MODICE v2 (using full annual data) (N.B. note average over time decreased from about 23,000 km^2 to around 15,000, and interannual variability is lower, both of which we should expect from the changes in the data. Never seen area in new data is < 2 km^2 for the Upper Indus. )
