SASSIE Arctic Field Campaign SWIFT Data Fall 2022 Version 1

Description

The Salinity and Stratification at the Sea Ice Edge (SASSIE) project is a NASA experiment that aims to understand how salinity anomalies in the upper ocean generated by melting sea ice affect sea surface temperature (SST), stratification, and subsequent sea-ice growth. SASSIE involved a field campaign that sampled the transition from summer melt to autumn ice advance in the Beaufort Sea during August-October 2022, making intensive in situ and remote sensing observations within ~200 km of the sea ice edge. The Surface Wave Instrument Float with Tracking (SWIFT) drifter is a passive Lagrangian wave-following sensor platform. During the SASSIE deployment, five SWIFT drifters were deployed in September 2022, collecting measurements of salinity, sea surface temperature, waves, and meteorological data. SWIFT drifter buoys contain GPS, a pulse-coherent Doppler velocity profiler, an autonomous meteorological station, and a digital video recorder. Data are available in netCDF format.
