Abstract:

This report presents environmental data obtained by the Applied Physics Laboratory of the University of Washington APL-UW at APLIS 93, an ice camp established in the Beaufort Sea in Spring 1993 to support Navy-sponsored tests and research during ICEX 1-93. Data analysis is limited because the purpose of this report is to provide field data to ice camp participants. The data were collected to document the meteorological and oceanographic conditions that existed during camp activities. The main data sets are weather, floe drift, STD profiles, currents, and ice properties. Arctic, Beaufort sea, Currents, Sea ice properties, Floe drift, STD Profiles, Weather.
