Progress Code: completed Statement: See Readme file . data collected as header, then 8 x celsius temperature columns for each of 8 x thermistors on the cable . uppermost sensor in leftmost column of data . data collected at 0.5 hour sampling rate for several days after initial installation, then 6 hour rate . batteries fail in loggers after weeks to months, but can be replaced annually . Note - depths are referenced back to sea level. The minimum depth of 57 metres asl refers to the height of the ice surface. AM02 borehole drilled December 2000. Partial annual data retrieved for 2001. Complete annual data retrieved for 2002, and 2003. Consult Readme file for detail of data files and formats. New data and readme added July 2006.
