Amery Ice Shelf - hot water drill borehole, AM03 Brancker thermistor data - 2011/2012 data

AM03 borehole drilled December 2005.

Consult Readme file for detail of data files and formats.

2011-2012 data may be final data from the unit owing to battery failure.

The original project for this dataset was ASAC 1164, but recent data fall under the auspices of project AAS 4096.

Resource lineage

Statement: See Readme file ... data collected as header, then 8 x celsius temperature columns for each of 8 x thermistors on the cable ... uppermost sensor in leftmost column of data ... data collected at 0.5 hour sampling rate for several days after initial installation, then 6 hour rate ... batteries fail in loggers after weeks to months, but can be replaced annually ... Note - depths provided in spatial coverage are referenced back to sea level. The minimum depth asl refers to the height of the ice surface. The ice shelf is approximately 722 m thick.

Hierarchy level: Dataset

Maintenance and update frequency: As needed

Maintenance note: 2015-01-16 - record created by Dave Connell after data were provided by Stefan Vogel. 2019-03-13 - record updated by Dave Connell for ISO compliance.
