Ice Tethered Profiler 18 Data Data from ITP18 deployed in August 2007
Last buoy status on 2008/10/21 230001 UTC : temperature = -3.01 °C, battery = 10.88 V Last position on 2008/10/21 170138 UTC : 74.1359° N, 143.3472° W Last profile (number 914) on 2008/10/9 624 UTC Last profile mean motor current = 71.0288 mA, mean battery = 10.0412 V Last profile depth: minimum = NaN, maximum = NaN m Last profile temperature: minimum = NaN, maximum = NaN °C Last profile salinity: minimum = NaN, maximum = NaN The raw GPS buoy location data are available in an ASCII file: itp18rawlocs.dat Depth averaged profiler data files (with interpolated location) are available in two formats: ITP18 was deployed on August 16, 2007 on a 3.05 m thick ice floe in the Beaufort Sea at 78° 56 N, 139° 58 W as part of the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) during the JOIS 2007 cruise on the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent. On the same icefloe, a US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) Ice Mass Balance Buoy (IMB 07949) and a Naval Postgraduate School Arctic Ocean Flux Buoy (AOFB) were also installed. The ITP is operating on a standard sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day.
