Abstract
A computer implemented method of predicting ice coverage on a body of water includes generating a first ice cover prediction with a thermodynamics module and generating a second ice cover prediction with a machine learning module. The first ice cover prediction is combined with the second ice cover prediction to generate a combined ice cover prediction. Error statistics are computed based on a comparison of the combined ice cover prediction with an ice coverage observation and the combined ice cover prediction is updated based on the error statistics.
