Download the NVIDIA app beta today and send us feedback via the NVIDIA app. During the NVIDIA app beta, GeForce Experience and the NVIDIA Control Panel will continue to be available. Read below to learn more about what to expect from the NVIDIA app today and in the coming months.
The NVIDIA app integrates GeForce Experience's Optimal Game Settings and NVIDIA Control Panel's 3D Settings into a unified interface. This becomes a centralized place to review or modify optimizations while adjusting driver settings. You can customize it on a per-applications basis, or use a global profile across all games and applications.
When it comes to your favorite games or applications, Game Ready Drivers and Studio Drivers ensure the ultimate experience for gamers and creators. A popular request from GeForce Experience users is for a quicker, more straightforward way to understand what's included in the latest driver updates.
Our In-Game Overlay has undergone a comprehensive redesign. As before, use the convenient "Alt+Z" hotkey to swiftly access Shadowplay recording tools, Freestyle Game Filters, NVIDIA Highlights, photo mode, and performance monitoring tools.
In the NVIDIA app, we've improved the user interface, enabling quick access to features while playing your favorite game or using an application. And your captured content is now readily available in the gallery through user-friendly thumbnails.
NVIDIA Freestyle empowers you to personalize the visual aesthetics of your favorite games through real-time post-processing filters. This feature boasts compatibility with a vast library of more than 1,200 games, and now NVIDIA app offers AI-powered filters, accelerated by Tensor Cores on GeForce RTX GPUs.
RTX Dynamic Vibrance is an AI-powered Freestyle filter that improves upon the beloved Digital Vibrance feature in the NVIDIA Control Panel. RTX Dynamic Vibrance enhances visual clarity on a per app basis, providing players with a flexible and convenient way to tune their visual settings for each game. Colors pop more on screen, with perfect balance to minimize color crushing, preserving image quality and immersion.
RTX HDR, a new AI-powered Freestyle filter seamlessly brings the vibrant world of High Dynamic Range (HDR) to games that were not originally equipped with HDR support. Remarkably, only 10 of the top 50 most-played GeForce games offer HDR support and there are thousands of games that only support SDR. However, with the RTX HDR filter, you can now take advantage of your HDR-compatible monitor for a broad spectrum of games running on DX12, DX11, DX9, and Vulkan platforms. Check out the NVIDIA Consumer Support Knowledge Base for more details.
NVIDIA app users get access to rewards, such as in-game content, exclusive GeForce NOW premium membership offers, and more. Simply start the NVIDIA app and visit the Redeem tab to check out the latest rewards.
Not all features will be making the transition, though. Our primary goal with the NVIDIA app is to enhance the user experience, boost client performance, and pioneer RTX innovations. To achieve this, we've made the decision to discontinue a few features that were underutilized, especially where good alternatives exist.
This discontinuation encompasses Broadcast to Twitch and YouTube, Share Images and Video to Facebook and YouTube, and Photo Mode 360 & Stereo captures. Streamlining features helps the NVIDIA app install in half the time, deliver a 50% more responsive UI, and occupy 17% less disk space than GeForce Experience.
Sea ice data is updated daily, with a one-day lag. The orange line in extent and concentration images (left and middle) and the gray line in the time series (right) indicate 1981 to 2010 average extent for the day shown. The graph also includes lines for selected earlier years, for comparison. Learn about update delays and other problems which occasionally occur in near-real-time data. Read about the data.
The sea ice cover in May 2024 was marked by an unusually early opening of eastern Hudson Bay. Overall, the rate of decline in the Arctic was near average for the month. In the Antarctic, the seasonal increase in ice extent was slower than average, but extent in early June remains considerably higher than the record-setting low extent at this time last year.
The average Arctic sea ice extent for May 2024 was 12.78 million square kilometers (4.93 million square miles), tying for twelfth lowest with 2007 in the passive microwave satellite record (Figure 1a and 1b). As of the beginning of June, extent is well below average in the Hudson Bay and slightly below average elsewhere. Some coastal areas around the Arctic Ocean are beginning to open up, particularly in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas.
Atmospheric conditions over the Arctic were variable during May. Relatively cool conditions reigned over the Bering and Chukchi Seas as well as the Barents and Kara Seas, with air temperatures at the 925 millibar level (about 2,500 feet above sea level) 1 to 3 degrees Celsius (2 to 5 degrees Fahrenheit) below average (Figure 2a). By contrast, temperatures inthe Laptev and East Siberian Seas were 2 to 4 degrees Celsius (4 to 7 degrees Fahrenheit) above average. Temperatures over the Canadian Archipelago and northwestern Hudson Bay were 4 to 5 degrees Celsius (7 to 9 degrees Fahrenheit) above average. It was relatively cool over most of Greenland.
The sea level pressure pattern for May was marked by high pressure centered over the Canadian Archipelago with lower pressures to the south (Figure 2b). As discussed below, this played a large role in the opening of the eastern Hudson Bay by fostering winds from the east that pushed the sea ice west. Pressures were somewhat low from central Russia extending east into Canada, as well as southeast of Greenland.
This May, early ice loss in the eastern part of Hudson Bay was striking (Figure 4a). On average, Hudson Bay remains nearly completely ice covered through May, though it is not uncommon for some openings in the northwest part of the bay when winds from the northwest push ice away from the coast. However, in terms of size and location, the current opening in the east is unique in the satellite record that dates back to 1979 and has led to the lowest recorded sea ice extent for Hudson Bay for the month (Figure 4b).
Unusual strong and persistent winds from the east caused the low extent, related to the strong pressure gradient between high pressure over the Canadian Archipelago and lower pressure to the south. Some initial opening occurred even in April, but was followed by refreezing. Beginning in early May, the ice moved away from the eastern coast and open water has persisted there since.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of our colleague Ian Stirling. Ian joined the Canadian Wildlife Service (now Environment and Climate Change Canada) in 1970, where he began his polar bear research projects that would continue for over 30 years. When Ian started, very little was known about polar bears and how they were being impacted by changes to their environment. During his career, he was an energetic field observer, prolific author with more than 250 peer-reviewed scientific papers and five books, and a dedicated graduate student supervisor. In retirement, Ian was a popular naturalist and tour guide on Arctic and Antarctic cruises while he continued to contribute to research. Before he passed, he provided his polar bear expertise to a paper led by NSIDC scientist Julienne Stroeve that looks at the future of the Hudson Bay sea ice environment and impacts on polar bears and ringed seals. The paper will be published in the coming weeks in Nature.
The May ice edge was much farther south (below average extent) in the eastern Ross Sea sector and Amundsen Sea as well as north of Dronning Maud Land. Extent was higher (farther north) than average in the Weddell Sea and just west of the Ross Sea. This has resulted in an unusually asymmetric extent pattern around the Antarctic continent.
The causes behind the shift toward lower Antarctic sea ice extent that began in 2016, discussed in previous posts, continue to be studied. Comparing observations with Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 (CMIP6) model simulations reveals that models generally underestimate both maximum and minimum extent in the Antarctic. There is good agreement for September during the early part of the record, but the models do not capture the upward sea ice trend from the 1980s through 2015. In February, the model estimates of the minimum area are substantially lower than the observed area. The regime shift to lower areas has resulted in a closer match between the models and observations, particularly for September. This suggests that natural variability in observed sea ice extent is significant.
