The initial ice thickness and snow depth at the buoy deployment site were 1.53 and 0.15 m, respectively. The changes in ice thickness was determined using measurements by the underwater acoustic sounder. The measuring noise of the acoustic sounder has been removed. Since the acoustic sensor at the s...
