Thirty-one temperature and salinity profiles from Sermilik Fjord in East Greenland, close to the town of Tasiilaq. The profiles were collected with a Seabird SBE25plus CTD (#0251108) during August 2015 from the research vessel Adolf Jensen. The profiles are 1-m bin averages. The profiles form an approximate along-fjord transect; a handful of profiles were collected on the shelf outside of the fjord. These data were collected as part of a project that monitors Sermilik Fjord to determine what water masses flow into the fjord; in particular, if warm, Atlantic water from the Irminger Sea is able to penetrate into the fjord. Data are in netcdf format.

These temperature and salinity profiles were collected near the location of an Ice Tethered Mooring on the floating ice tongue of 79 North Glacier, at 79.68N and 20.35W. They consist of two profiles collected with Sippican XCTD-1 probes (1 meter bin averages). Both profiles were from the same location and were collected on August 23, 2016. Data are in NetCDF.

This dataset contains water temperature, salinity, and velocity taken by CTD and ADCP during 2012-07-16 to 2012-07-25 in Sarqardleq Fjord, Greenland. These data address the interaction of the ocean with tidewater glaciers around the margins of the Greenland Ice Sheet is thought to be a key control on ice sheet stability. Thus, understanding the processes which drive melting of the calving fronts of tidewater glaciers by the ocean is fundamental to projections of future global mean sea level rise. Our understanding is however currently limited, partly due to the scarcity of oceanographic data from close to the calving fronts of tidewater glaciers. The primary goal of these measurements was to quantify the ocean conditions adjacent to a west Greenland tidewater glacier. In particular, knowledge of the water temperature and water velocity is highly valuable as these are understood to be the two primary variables determining the rate at which the ocean melts the calving front of the glacier. These temperature, salinity, and velocity data were collected near a tidewater glacier in Sarqardleq Fjord, West Greenland during July 2012. Data are in NetCDF.
