Geophysical Data from Drifting Ice Stations FRAM IV and TRISTEN.

Abstract

This report contains satellite navigation positioning, precision depth recorder (PDR) measurements, ice floe azimuths, and magnetic declinations collected by the Lamont Group at the FRAM IV drifting ice station. Gravity measurements at FRAM IV, taken by Yngve Kristoffersen of the Norsk Polarinstitutt, are incorporated into this report. Satellite navigation positioning and PDR data from the drifting ice station TRISTEN are also included in this report. Data are presented in the form of tables and figures with a brief description of the instrument and methods used in the obtaining and reducing the data prior to each section. (Author)
