ITP127 was deployed on a 0.85 m ice floe in the Beaufort Sea on September 2, 2021 at 78° 34.9 N, 147° 19.3 W as part of the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) during the JOIS 2021 cruise on the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent. On the same icefloe, a Tethered Ocean Profiler (TOP2), and a US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) Seasonal Ice Mass Balance Buoy 3 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 and includes a fixed SAMI PCO2 with ODO and PAR at 5 m depth.
