Abstract:
The data set presents various metadata/general details on sea ice stations of five Nansen Legacy cruises (JC1-2, Q1, Q2, JC2-2 and JC3) conducted during 2018-2022 with the Norwegian ice-going research vessel Kronprins Haakon (KPH) to the northern Barents Sea, area north of Svalbard and further into the central Arctic, namely Nansen and Amundsen basins. During the on-ice work on these cruises, the information associated with organization of sea ice stations was logged. This dataset includes miscellaneous sea ice stations – specific information and documentation such as ice station reports and on-site notes, station maps and plans, photos, data on sea-ice drift during the on-ice work as well as any other materials found relevant for documenting the event. This information is potentially important as supporting for any further interpretation of results from various multidisciplinary activities conducted during the sea ice station work on these cruises.
