A large floe with some ridges and ponds. The measurements included a snow depth and ice thickness survey, soot sampling, ice cores, melt pond properties, transmission measurements, and a characterization of the snow cover. An IMB and a NOAA web cam were installed near the center of the floe in a flat area protected by ridges.
