We gathered ocean profiles during the first two floes of the N-ICE2015 ice camp north of Svalbard with IAOOS ocean profilers. Between January and March 2015, four ocean profilers were deployed: two below a full IAOOS platform (500 m long cable) during floe 1, two on an 800 m long instrumented line in a tent‐covered testing‐hole during floe1 and floe 2. The ocean profilers, from French manufacturer NKE (PROVOR SPI), carried a Seabird SBE41CP CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth) with an Aanderaa 4330 optode for dissolved oxygen (DO). The profilers were set to perform two profiles a day from 500 m upward (800 m from testing hole) starting at 6 am and 6 pm. They provided the first winter data in the region with a total of 138 profiles during floe 1 (January 15- February 21) with 62, 50, and 26 profiles for IAOOS7, IAOOS8, and IAOOS 9, respectively and 16 profiles during floe 2 (February 24 - March 19- IAOOS 11 from testing hole). Following quality control, we retain all the temperature profiles and remove 1% ...
