| Summary: | As a part of the Nansen Legacy project, ocean microstructure data were collected using an MSS (Microstructure Sensor Profiler, Sea&Sun Technology, Germany) profiler during the Nansen Legacy cruise, KB2022625 in October 2022. The goal was to conduct ocean mixing and water transformation process studies in the Barents Sea Polar Front region east of Svalbard, in the northern Barents Sea. During the cruise, we obtained 267 microstructure profiles. One cast was not processed (recorded only in the upcast). Out of the processed 266 files, 270 sections were extracted and supplied as NetCDF (NC) files with hierarchical groups. A section (a more general term for a profile) is a continuous segment of the time series with dissipation estimates. One profile cast can have multiple sections if, for example, the profile is interrupted by a gap when the instrument did not fall freely. Here we provide 266 NC files (one NC file per instrument's native file) compressed in one folder, as well as 2 NC files, one for profiles ... |
