Abstract:
Temperature and heating-induced temperature differences were measured along a chain of thermistors. SIMBA 2014T6 (a.k.a. Awi_33) is an autonomous instrument that was installed on the ice shelf close to Neumayer III Base, Antarctic during the expedition Neumayer AFIN in 2014. The thermistor chain was 5 m long and included 240 sensors with a regular spacing of 2 cm. 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 location, depth and time between 2014-08-08 and 2014-12-18. Sample intervals are commonly between 1 and 24 hours, but most frequently hit intervals of 6 hours for temperature and 24 hours for temperature differences. The data set has been processed as follows: obvious inconsistencies (missing values) and unrealistic values in position have been removed. This instrument was deployed as part of the project Antarctic Fast Ice Network (AFIN)
Sea Ice Physics @ AWI (AWI_SeaIce).
