Light absorbing impurity profiles in snow on sea-ice collected during SIPEX II
Our sampling techniques got better with each ice station, but at the first few ice stations there was a considerable amount of lint in our snow samples. The lint was likely from our gloves. The lint can be carefully removed from the filters once back in Seattle so our results will not be affected. P...

Our sampling techniques got better with each ice station, but at the first few ice stations there was a considerable amount of lint in our snow samples. The lint was likely from our gloves. The lint can be carefully removed from the filters once back in Seattle so our results will not be affected. Particulate impurities in snow such as dust and soot can absorb sunlight. This is important for snow albedo in the Arctic, but probably not in the Antarctic. Snow was collected in plastic bags through the full depth of the snowpack over first-year sea ice at several locations: one location each on Ice Stations 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, upwind of the ship. The snow was melted and the meltwater filtered. The filters will be analysed for light-absorbing impurities in a laboratory spectrophotometer in Seattle. Samples of size ~1 kg were collected at Ice Station 1. The filters were blank, so at Ice Stations 2 and 3 larger samples of size 2-4 kg were collected.
