This dataset contains observations of ice conditions taken from the bridge of the RV Aurora Australis during SIPEX 2012, following the Scientific Committee on Antarctic... -
Helicopter-borne passive-microwave observations during the SIPEX II voyage...
This dataset contains sea ice surface brightness temperatures using a portable passive-microwave radiometer operating at 36Ghz-H,V mounted to the undercarriage of a Squirrel... -
Parent metadata record for all metadata created from the SIPEX II voyage of...
More than 50 scientists from eight countries conducted the Sea Ice Physics and Ecosystem eXperiment 2012 (SIPEX-2). The 2012 voyage built on information and observations... -
Snow buoy deployments made during the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora Australis, 2012
This document describes the deployment of five Ice Mass Balance Buoys (IMBs) and two automatic weather stations. These were primarily deployed on floes 2012103 and 20121029, as... -
International circumpolar compilation of nutrient concentration data from...
This dataset is an international circumpolar compilation of currently available macronutrient concentration data from Antarctic land-fast sea ice cores collected at locations... -
Ice-physics transect data obtained during the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora...
This dataset contains in situ measurements of ice thickness, snow thickness, and freeboard along transects on the ice-station floes from the SIPEX2012. Ice cores were collected... -
Krill Camera Footage and Traps from the SIPEX II Voyage of the Aurora Australis
The intention of the Deep Krill Camera and Trap System was to monitor and capture krill found during deep CTD operations. Two traps were installed on the CTD in place of Niskin... -
Skin temperature data of the pack ice zone collected during the SIPEX voyage...
Skin temperature data over the East Antarctic pack ice zone were recorded by the RAPPLS airborne instrument package using a KT-19II infrared pyrometer. The KT-19II infrared... -
Downward looking, ice-mounted ADCP data collection during the SIPEX II...
A 600KHz Teledyne RDI Workhorse Sentinel ADCP was deployed through a 10inch auger hole, flush with the base of the ice, looking downwards. At ice stations 2, 3, and 4 the... -
3-D mapping of sea ice draft with an autonomous underwater vehicle
We set out to achieve floe-scale 3-D mapping of sea ice draft and bio-optical parameters using a Multibeam SONAR and Hyperspectral radiometer mounted to an Autonomous Underwater... -
Surface krill sampling in relation to environmental condition collected...
We checked each site by taking ice cores and observing the algae biomass to determine the likelihood of krill living under the sea ice in each location. We also used a Remotely... -
DC Conductivity of sea-ice measured during the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora...
DC Electrical: In order to relate the fluid permeability to the electrical properties of sea ice, we also took measurements of the vertical component of the DC electrical... -
Zooplankton abundance based on RMT1 net during SIPEX winter-spring transition
Zooplankton were collected during the winter-spring transition with an RMT8+1 net during the SIPEX voyage in 2007. Only the RMT1 data are presented here. The net was deployed on... -
Nitrate profiles in snow on sea-ice collected during SIPEX II
This dataset contains measurements of nitrate in snow on the sea-ice. These vertical nitrate profiles were collected from snow pits that were dug at each ice station during the... -
Net Radiation measurements taken from ice stations 2,3,7 during the SIPEX II...
Note - these data should be used with caution. The chief investigator for the dataset has indicated that a better quality dataset exists, but the AADC have been unable to attain... -
ASPeCt Sea Ice Data from the SIPEX Voyage of the Aurora Australis in 2007-2008
ASPeCt is an expert group on multi-disciplinary Antarctic sea ice zone research within the SCAR Physical Sciences program. Established in 1996, ASPeCt has the key objective of... -
Ice and snow pit measurements observed during the SIPEX II voyage of the...
This dataset contains routine measurements of snow and ice thickness, and snow-ice interface temperature, at 1m intervals along standard transects; snow property... -
Stable isotopes for POM and grazers (zooplankton) collected during the SIPEX...
Zooplankton were collected during the winter-spring transition during two cruises of the Aurora Australis: SIPEX in 2007 and SIPEX II in 2012. As part of the collections sea ice... -
Diurnal snow pit measurements observed during the SIPEX II voyage of the...
Motivation: One of the characteristics of this voyage is that we have long ice stations which last for a few days. Taking this opportunity, we decided to examine the diurnal...
