This dataset contains data resulting from the measurement of brine samples extracted from the sea-ice during the 2012 SIPEX 2 (Sea Ice Physics and Ecosystems Experiment) marine science voyage. The Brine was collected from partially drilled holes in the ice using suction. In some of these cases the brine analysed came from holes which correspond to permeability measurements. In these cases a core number is associated with the brine data which will correspond to the core number in the permeability data set. Brine was also made on the ship by repeatedly freezing sea water collected from site 8. Measurements of the electrical permittivity of the brine were measured from 200MHz-4GHz with varying temperature and salinity. The measurements were carried out using the FieldFox portable network analyser from Agilent technologies along with the Agilent 85070e high temperature dielectric probe. Typically the brine was cooled and measured as the temperature changed over time once removed from a freezer. Some samples were measured before and after filtering out any biology that may have been present to see any biological effect on the electrical properties of the brine, in particular any effect extra cellular carbon may have. Measurements of the biology in the brine were performed by Sarah Ugalde please refer to the biophysical folder for further information and the data.
The actual permittivity measurements can be found in the Brine_Frequency_Temp Excel file. In the file each set of measurements has its own tab. Each measurement has a temperature and salinity associated with it. For a variability study measurements were repeated on some samples in which case the tab contains the sample name as well as an index indicating which repetition the data corresponds to. For example Core 85 6 would be the 6th measurement for core 85. You will also find the Excel file Brine_Calibration_Record which logs each calibration preformed before each measurement. The calibration for a given brine measurement has the same name as that brine measurement so that they can be matched. The permittivity measurements for each frequency, salinity and temperature are given in the real (e') and imaginary part (e").
