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. This dataset contains ocean temperature, salinity, and acoustic range measurements collected by an autonomous under ice float deployed in the Beaufort Sea from September 10, 2022 to October 22, 2022. Data are available in netCDF format.
