The ITP profiler was configured to operate with a standard sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day, and the GPS receiver was powered every hour to obtain locations, and buoy temperature and battery voltage status were recorded.  After 258 days of reliable operation and data telemetry, the instrument stopped phoning in – presumably crushed in the ice pack.

The plots to the right are of the final, calibrated, edited data (as opposed to the raw data presented on the active instrument pages).

See the Data Products tab to the left for descriptions of the three levels (I, II, III) of data processing and to access all data.
