Thickness, Salinity and Stable Isotope Composition of Sea Ice Samples from the Laptev Sea, 1999

Entry ID: ARCSS041

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: This data set consists of sea ice measurements including thickness, salinity, and stable isotope composition from the Laptev Sea. The data were obtained during the Transdrift VI expedition to the Laptev Sea in April and May of 1999 as part of a project supported through the National Science Foundation (NSF) Arctic System Science (ARCSS) Program. Sea ice cores were obtained with a 10 cm diameter ...
