Three ice-tethered / floating systems measuring sub - sea-ice Photosynthetic Active Radiation (PAR) were deployed within the MOSAiC ice camp from February 2020, and recorded hourly data through to later summer 2020. These Optical Chain And Logger (OptiCAL) systems capture PAR-like data at 12 logarit...
