Summary: | Temperature and heating-induced temperature differences were measured along a chain of thermistors. SIMBA 2019T70 (a.k.a. FMI_06_03, IRIDIUM number 300234068705280) is an autonomous instrument that was installed on drifting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean during the 1st leg of the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) in October 2019. The buoy was deployed at the L3 site with initial thicknesses of snow and ice of 0.06 and 0.48 m, respectively, on 10 October 2019. The thermistor chain was 5 m long and included 241 sensors with a regular spacing of 2 cm. The depths for the sensors are 70 to -408 cm, referring to the initial interface between snow and ice. The last sensor was used to measure the air temperature at 1 m above the initial snow surface. The resulting time series describes the evolution of temperature and temperature differences after two heating cycles of 30 and 120 s as a function of depth and time between 10 October 2019 and 5 August 2020 in sample intervals ... : The data set has been processed and contains quality flags for different kinds for erroneous data. Flag values are the sum of individual error codes. The value of 0 refers to no error. Quality flag, position: The geographic position is flagged +1 if the drift velocity, as derived from the GPS longitude and latitude, exceeds a threshold of 10 deg latitude or 50 deg longitude per time step; +2 if the position exceeds extreme values, such as longitude > 360 deg; +4 if the position is exactly 0.0. ... |
