Data on ocean turbulent fluxes from Turbulence Instrument Cluster (TIC) deployed below ice floe.
Quality controlled (QC) 3-hourly averaged under-ice turbulence data data, heat flux and friction velocity (u star) with complete metadata (time and position).
Version 2.4 Matlab format has correct Latitudes and Longitudes. Salt fluxes are included, but not quality controlled to the same extent.

Salt fluxes are included, but not quality controlled to the same extent, and are thus named saltflux_raw. Variables in the netcdf file (note that the Latitudes and Longitudes are incorrect in the netcdf file):
