Hydrographic and current time series data from outside the southern side of the Isfjorden Mouth during 31 August 2015 to 12 August 2016 at 78.0611 deg. N and 13.5249 deg. E, and 205 m depth. The mooring was deployed by the University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS) as a part of the AGF course “Polar Ocean Climate” to monitor inflow of Atlantic Water to Isfjorden, and was equipped with three Aanderaa Instruments recoding current meters (RCMs) with auxiliary CTD sensors covering the upper, the intermediate, and the bottom layer. Additionally, three SBE 37 MicroCAT CTDs and five VEMCO mini temperature loggers were evenly distributed over the water column. For further details of the mooring and data, see Skogseth et al. (2020).
