| Summary: | Temperature and heating-induced temperature differences were measured along a chain of thermistors. SIMBA 2019T56 (a.k.a. FMI_05_06, IRIDIUM number 300234065176750) is an autonomous instrument that was installed on drifting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean during the 1st leg of the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) in November 2019. The buoy was deployed at the ~2 km from the ship at the SW direction with initial thicknesses of snow and ice of 0.18 and 0.42 m, respectively, on 2 November 2019. The thermistor chain was 5 m long and included 241 sensors with a regular spacing of 2cm. The depths for the sensors are 80 to -398 cm, referring to the initial interface between snow and ice. The last sensor was used to measure the air temperature at 1 m above the initial snow surface. The resulting time series describes the evolution of temperature and temperature differences after two heating cycles of 30 and 120 s as a function of depth and time between 2 November 2019 and 2 July 2020 in sample intervals of 6 hours for temperature and 24 hours for temperature differences. In addition to temperature, geographic position, barometric pressure, tilt and compass were measured. |
