For the second year consecutively, PIOMAS arctic ice volume has set a
new record low since the start of the estimations in 1979, and the
summer season has several more months left.  The arctic ice volume
indicated by PIOMAS is a more meaningful indicator of the decline in
Arctic ice than sea ice extent:
