| Summary: | The cruise occurred in August, providing a snapshot of ice conditions at the end of the 2007 melt season. Through out the cruise we experienced melt conditions, with grease ice and nilas only forming on clear dry nights. Caution should be taken in comparing the 2007 to 2006 observations, as the 2006 cruise occurred two weeks later in the season and we experienced the beginning of the freeze season at latitudes about 76N. Ship-based sea ice observation data collected along the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent ship track during the mid to late summer melt season. |
