Description

This dataset contains data collected during the Canadian-Swedish expedition Arctic Ocean 2016. The research cruise took place August through September 2016, using the icebreaker Oden.

Work Package: Meteorology, Atmospheric Boundary Layer and Surface Fluxes

The meteorology work package has three distinct objectives:

1) Profiling of the thermodynamic structure of the polar atmosphere from the surface to approximately 25 km to provide information on synoptic structure.

2) Measurement of turbulent surface exchange (momentum, heat, water vapour), the surface energy balance, and evaluation of exchange coefficien
