Ocean microstructure measurements were obtained from a Rockland Scientific (RSI) MicroRider (MR, serial number 324) attached to an electric Slocum glider. The glider Odin is a 1000-m electric Teledyne Webb Slocum glider (G3, serial number 775). The glider was operated close to the marginal ice zone, west of Spitsbergen, during the ATWAICE cruise on board Polarstern (PS131) in July 2022. The glider mission started on 6 July 2022 and ended on 2 August 2022. In addition to the turbulence package, the glider was equipped with a pumped Seabird conductivity-temperature (CTD) sensor. Both the CTD and the MR were configured to sample during dives and climbs of the glider. The dissipation rate was measured using two airfoil shear probes. The dataset has been processed and formatted in accordance with the SCOR Working Group ATOMIX guidelines and recommendations. This set of two NetCDF (NC) files are constructed from the individual NC files per instrument's native file, which are provided separately (one file between ...
