Description
Summary:The dataset contains a subset of physical oceanography data collected by the Norwegian Institute between 1981 and 2015. The data come from moored instruments (current meters, ADCPs, temperature and salinity sensors), and from CTD casts (standard casts from ships, and casts with portable equipment on helicopter transects). It also contains bottle data (such as oxygen isotope ratios and nutrients), sea ice thicknesses observed by upward looking sonars, and sea ice drift observed by ADCPs. This dataset is available as a JSON API only.
