Water temperature, conductivity, and other parameters from CTD and ADCP below ice shelf in the Ross Sea from 2015-01-09 to 2015-01-19 (NCEI Accession 0176082)
This dataset contains profiles of water conductivity, temperature, pressure, and derived practical salinity in the Ross Ice Shelf cavity near the Whillans Ice Stream grounding zone. At this site, the water thickness in the cavity is 10.35 m. We also present mean and standard deviation of current speed at mid-depth, roughly 5 m below the ice-shelf base. The ice shelf at this site was 755 m thick. Data are in text format.
