Animation showing the survey track and measurement data of Saildrone track 1036 deployed during the Arctic field campaign from 15 May 2019 to 11 October 2019. Here we see time series of surface salinity and temperature measurements in relation to satellite SSS and SST respectively.  The animation also maps the movement of the saildrone, with colors representing collocated satellite SSS and SST along-track. The dataset can be accessed from the PO.DAAC Portal at https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/dataset/SAILDRONE_ARCTIC (DOI: 10.5067/SDRON-NOPP0)
