Snow on Antarctic sea ice has tremendous impacts on Albedo, light transmission and sea ice mass balance. Snow Buoys (Nicolaus et al., 2021) measure snow accumu- lation over time with four ultra sonic sensors. Here we present 14 Snow Buoys which were deployed in the Wed- dell Sea since 2013. These sn...
