Ship-Based Incoming Solar and Longwave Radiation, 2007-2008 CFL IPY Project
During the 2007-2008 CFL IPY Project, the research icebreaker CCGS Amundsen overwintered in the South Beaufort Sea/Amundsen Gulf flaw lead system. The purpose of this experiment was to comprehensively study the flaw lead system through an entire annual cycle. As part of this project, the following radiation variables were recorded at 1 minute intervals (instrument used to collect each variable is in parentheses):
-Incoming shortwave radiation (Eppley pyranometer, model PSP) -Incoming longwave radiation (Eppley pyrgeometer, model PIR) -Incoming photosynthetically active radiation (Kipp & Zonen, PARlite) -Incoming UV-A radiation (Kipp & Zonen, UVS-AB-T) - available after April 4, 2008 -Incoming UV-B radiation (Kipp & Zonen, UVS-AB-T) - available after April 4, 2008
All instruments were mounted on a platform on the wheelhouse of the CCGS Amundsen.
