Tethered Ocean Profiler 6 Data Data from TOP6 deployed in September 2022 Last buoy status on 2023/10/2 3101 UTC : temperature = -1.0625 °C, battery = 10.408 V Last position on 2023/10/2 3101 UTC : 78.1077° N, 121.2571° W Last profile (number 4436) on 2023/10/2 33 UTC Last profile mean motor current = 77.917 mA, mean battery = 10.0735 V Last profile depth: minimum = 3.3663, maximum = 46.8246 m Last profile temperature: minimum = -1.5684, maximum = -1.3007 °C Last profile salinity: minimum = 28.2229, maximum = 31.1388 The raw GPS buoy location data are available in an ASCII file: top6rawlocs.dat Depth averaged profiler data files (with interpolated location) are available in two formats: TOP6 was deployed on an 1.1 m thick ice floe in the Beaufort Sea on September 26, 2021 at 79° 48.7 N, 139° 57.6 W as part of the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) during the JOIS 2022 cruise on the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent. On the same icefloe, an Ice-Tethered Profiler (ITP137) and a US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) Seasonal Ice Mass Balance Buoy 3 were also installed. The TOP is operating on a standard sampling schedule of 6 two-way profiles from the surface to 200 m depth each day.
