Abstract:
Direct (contact) measurements of sea ice thickness, elevation and snow height performed at points of 59 hydrological (oceanographic) stations during the TransArctic-2019 expedition (28 March - 04 May 2019) are presented. Variables include time, geographical location (lat, lon) and measurements of minimum (imin, m) and maximum (imax, m) sea ice thickness, minimum (iemin, m) and maximum (iemax, m) sea ice elevation (above sea level), minimum (smi, m) and maximum (sma, m) snow height, hummock concentration (huct, in 1/10 of area coverage) and maximum hummocks height (humh, m). Data is presented in CSV, DBF and shapefile formats.
TransArctic-2019 expedition was convened by the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute (AARI) aboard AARI research vessel "Akademik Tryoshnikov" within the area of the Arctic Basin northward of the Franz-Josef Land archipelago. Points of the stations were the helicopter landing sites chosen on sufficiently level and thick ice along the sections at a distance of 10s-100s km from the drifting ship.
