    Notes: The multi-year sea ice (MY) concentration as determined with the NASA Team algorithm (NTA) shows an increase during winter. This unrealistic feature can be reduced using combined active and passive remote sensing data, leading to a more realistic estimation of MY area. Our joint analysis of SSM/I, QuikSCATterometer (QSCAT) and meteorological data reveals events (i.e. intervals in space and time) where increased surface roughness and volume scattering, after a melt-refreezing episode, alters the passive microwave signature of the undisturbed sea ice surface. In these events, the calculation of MY and FY areas employing the NTA leads to false estimations of their amounts. It is shown that when such events occur, QSCAT backscatter values increase by more than 3 dB. This backscatter variation can be easily detected and the FY and MY area determination of the NTA can be corrected accordingly within defined event-regions. Using this method, called Simultaneous NTA, we found that in May 2000 12% of the area detected by the NTA as MY has to be corrected to FY. As a consequence, a detailed reanalysis of the 20-year passive microwave data set is suggested to more precisely compute the MY area.
