Time-series data from the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) Autonomous Ocean Flux Buoy (AOFB) #14. This buoy was deployed in the Central Arctic on 13 September 2007. The buoy drifted along the Lomonosov Ridge, with the time series ending on 31 December 2007. The buoy measured velocity, temperature, salinity, and the vertical turbulent fluxes of heat, salt, and momentum in the ocean surface mixed layer with a custom-built sensor package about 5 m below the ice-ocean interface. The buoy also measured vertical profiles of ocean currents with an RD instruments 600 kHz Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP).
