Auxiliary data from SIMBA-type sea ice mass balance buoy 2014T11

DOI

Temperature and heating-induced temperature differences were measured along a chain of thermistors. SIMBA 2014T11 (a.k.a. Awi_52) is an autonomous instrument that was installed on drifting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean during the expedition Polarstern PS86 (ARK28/3, AURORA) 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 2014-07-21 and 2014-09-24. 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 FRontiers in Arctic marine Monitoring (FRAM), Sea Ice Physics @ AWI (AWI_SeaIce).
