ITP32 was deployed on October 4, 2009 on a 3 m thick ice floe (formerly occupied by ITP 8) in the Beaufort Sea at 80° 19.4 N, 151° 45.7 W as part of the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) during the JOIS 2009 cruise on the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent. The ITP is operating on a standard sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day.
