Neutrino oscillation models involving one extra mass eigenstate beyond the standard three (3+1) are fit to global short baseline experimental data and the recent IceCube νμ+νˉμ disappearance search result. We find a best fit of Δm412=1.75eV2 with Δχnull−min2 (dof) of 50.61 (4). We find that the combined IceCube and short baseline data constrain θ34 to <80∘(<6∘) at 90\% C.L. for Δm412≈2(6)eV2, which is improved over present limits. Incorporating the IceCube information provides the first constraints on all entries of the 3+1 mixing matrix.
