The PO.DAAC is pleased to announce the public release of datasets from the Salinity and Stratification at the Sea Ice Edge (SASSIE) 2022 Arctic Field Experiment.

From August to October 2022, a suite of autonomous and shipboard instrumentation was deployed in the Beaufort Sea to measure how summertime sea ice melt contributes to subsequent winter sea ice formation. Measurements include near-surface salinity, conductivity, ocean temperature, pressure, surface winds, atmospheric temperature, radiative flux, and precipitation.

Detailed information about the SASSIE field experiment and instrumentation is available via the SASSIE project website, SASSIE Data For You and SASSIE Code For You story maps, and also via the PO.DAAC SASSIE mission page.

Datasets comprising this release are organized by instrument, summarized below:
