DescriptionThe 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 ~200 km of the sea ice edge. This dataset contains near-surface air pressure, temperature, and winds, as well as ocean temperature and salinity measurements collected using a Jet Surface Salinity Profiler (Jet-SSP). The Jet-SSP is a remotely operated kayak containing various instrumentation. It moved along various horizontal trajectories each deployment, traveling up to 5 kts as it collected data. Data are available in NetCDF format.
