Final, processed (Level 3) measurements and derive parameters from the Atmospheric Surface Flux Station #50 (ASFS50) deployed at various locations during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition drifting with the central Arctic sea ice from October 2019 through September 2020. The ASFS measured all variables of the surface energy budget, air-ice momentum flux, near-surface meteorology, and local position. Measurements high-resolution 3-dimensional winds were observed at a nominal height of 4-m. Measurements of upwelling broadband radiation and meteorology observed from a nominal height of 2-m. The measurements are included in two netCDF files per day. The “1min” mosmet files are comprised of 1-min averages of measured and derived variables, including near-surface meteorology, surface skin temperature, snow depth, radiative fluxes, and position. The “10min” mosseb files are 10-min averages of the same variables as in the 1-min files and also include ...
