In situ Lagrangian drifting buoy data off East Antarctica for the austral spring of 2012, deployed during the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora Australis
Entry ID: SIPEX_II_Buoys

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: In situ Lagrangian drifter positions were collected from nine expendable sea-ice buoys. Positions were collected by GPS receivers aboard each buoy and relayed via the CLS Argos satellite data system.

The scientific proposal for this project was based on the deployment of two meso-scale buoy arrays over the continental shelf break in the SIPEX 2012 experimental region. Resolving of ice motion ... View entire text

Access Constraints None
Use Constraints The Chewelah 30' X 60' geologic-map database should be used to
evaluate and understand the geologic character of the Chewelah 30' X
60' quadrangle as a whole. The data should not be used for purposes
of site-specific land-use planning or site-specific geologic
evaluations. The database is sufficiently detailed to identify and
characterize geologic materials and ... View entire text
