Environmental Measurements in the Beaufort Sea, Spring 1991

Abstract

This report presents environmental and ambient noise data obtained by the Applied Physics Laboratory of the University of Washington (APL-UW) and the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) at APLIS 91, an ice camp established in the Beaufort Sea in spring 1991 to support Navy sponsored tests and research during ICEX-91. The purpose of this report is to provide field data to ice camp participants, so data analysis is limited here. The data were collected to document the meteorological and oceanograhic conditions that existed during camp activities. The main data sets are weather, floe drift, STD profiles, current, ice properties, and ambient noise.
