These data are available to be used subject to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research ("UCAR") terms and conditions.
Snow, surface scattering layer (SSL), or melt pond depths are measured by inserting a metal probe with centimeter gradations into the surface until it struck hard ice. Positive (+) measurements reflect snow or loose decaying ice crystals known as the surface scattering layer, while negative (-) measurements indicate melt pond depths. Measurements were made every 0.5m, along the transect lines.
