SASSIE Arctic Field Campaign PALS Data Fall 2022
The Salinity and Stratification at the Sea Ice Edge (SASSIE) project is a NASA experiment that aims to understand how salinity anomalies in the upper ocean generated by melting sea ice affect sea surface temperature (SST), stratification, and subsequent sea-ice growth. SASSIE involved a field campaign that sampled the transition from summer melt to autumn ice advance in the Beaufort Sea during August-October 2022, making intensive in situ and remote sensing observations within ~200km of the sea ice edge. The Passive-Active L-Band System (PALS) is an airborne microwave radiometer that senses ocean temperature and surface wind speed. The brightness temperature data is obtained at 1.4GHz using the PALS conical scanner, with the raw data sampled at 1ms and gridded over an approximate 2x2km grid. Several quality control steps were done to remove any scan dependent biases, radio frequency interference, wind-speed dependencies. Calibration of the sensor was done with respect to special aircraft maneuvers as well as in-situ samples. Brightness temperature were converted to salinity via the Klein-Swift salinity retrieval model. Data is available in netCDF format.

SPURS-2 Surface Salinity Snake data for the E. Tropical Pacific field campaign R/V Revelle cruises
The SPURS (Salinity Processes in the Upper Ocean Regional Study) project is a NASA-funded oceanographic process study and associated field program that aim to elucidate key mechanisms responsible for near-surface salinity variations in the oceans. The project is comprised of two field campaigns and a series of cruises in regions of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans exhibiting salinity extremes. SPURS employs a suite of state-of-the-art in-situ sampling technologies that, combined with remotely sensed salinity fields from the Aquarius/SAC-D, SMAP and SMOS satellites, provide a detailed characterization of salinity structure over a continuum of spatio-temporal scales. The SPURS-2 campaign involved two month-long cruises by the R/V Revelle in August 2016 and October 2017 combined with complementary sampling on a more continuous basis over this period by the schooner Lady Amber. Focused around a central mooring located near 10N,125W, the objective of SPURS-2 was to study the dynamics of the rainfall-dominated surface ocean at the western edge of the eastern Pacific fresh pool subject to high seasonal variability and strong zonal flows associated with the North Equatorial Current and Countercurrent. The Salinity Snake (SS) measures sea surface salinity in the top 1 - 2 cm of the water column, which is the radiometric depth of L-Band satellite radiometers such as on Aquarius/SAC-D, SMAP and SMOS satellites that measure salinity remotely. The SS consists of four key components: a 10m boom mast, a hose, which is deployed from this boom, a powerful self-priming peristaltic pump which transports a constant stream of a seawater/air emulsion, and a shipboard apparatus, which filters, de-bubbles, sterilizes and analyses the salinity of the water. The SS was deployed during both SPURS-2 Revelle cruises. SS data series are provided in netCDF file format, one per cruise.

The Saildrone Arctic 2022 dataset presents a unique collection of high-quality, near real-time, multivariate surface ocean, and atmospheric observations obtained through the deployment of Saildrone, an innovative wind and solar-powered uncrewed surface vehicle (USV). Saildrone is capable of extended missions lasting up to 12 months, covering vast distances at typical speeds of 3-5 knots and operates autonomously, relying solely on wind propulsion, while its navigation can be remotely guided from land. The 2022 Saildrone Arctic campaign featured two Saildrone USVs deployed during a 60-day cruise in the Bering and Chukchi Seas, spanning from 18 June 2022 to 17 August 2022. The primary mission objective for 2022 was to gather comprehensive atmospheric and oceanographic data in Alaskan arctic waters, specifically in collaboration with the Distributed Biological Observatory (DBO; https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/dbo/; https://dbo.cbl.umces.edu/). Please see the cruise report: https://archive.podaac.earthdata.nasa.gov/podaac-ops-cumulus-docs/insitu/open/L2/saildrone/docs/Saildrone_2022_Arctic_Cruise_Report.pdf <p>During the Arctic campaign, Saildrones SD-1041 and SD-1046 undertook distinct trajectories to cover designated areas. SD-1041 traversed repeat transects from Point Hope, AK southwestward to near the International Date Line, following DBO line #3 (https://dbo.cbl.umces.edu/images/Frey_DBOmap_IceEdge2022.png). In contrast, SD-1046 ventured northward to DBO line #4 and, upon sea ice retreat, proceeded further north to DBO line #5. Each Saildrone was equipped with a suite of instruments to measure various parameters, including air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, surface skin temperature, wind speed and direction, wave height and period, seawater temperature and salinity, chlorophyll fluorescence, and dissolved oxygen. Additionally, both vehicles utilized 300 kHz acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP) to measure near-surface currents. Seven temperature data loggers positioned vertically along the hull enhanced understanding of thermal variability near the ocean surface.<p>The Saildrone Arctic 2022 dataset, part of the Multi-sensor Improved Sea-Surface Temperature (MISST) project, encompasses three netCDF format files for each deployed Saildrone. The first file integrates saildrone platform telemetry and surface observational data at 1-minute temporal resolution including key parameters such as air temperature, sea surface skin, and bulk temperatures, salinity, oxygen and chlorophyll-a concentrations, barometric pressure, and wind speed and direction. The second file focuses on ADCP current vector data, providing depth-resolved information to 100m at 2m intervals and binned temporally at 5-minute resolution. The third file includes temperature logger measurements at various depths at 1-minute resolution.
