Borehole data from George VI Ice Shelf
Year-long mooring dataset from beneath George VI Ice Shelf between January 2012 and January 2013. Contains turbulence mooring data from two instruments initially at 2.57 m and 13.57 m beneath the ice base. High resolution 3D velocity data and temperature data at two instruments are included, as well...
