• 6/8 CT-moorings recovered (each with 4 SBE37)• 2 missing ones are assumed to be lost, no signal• KS03: pressure sensor at 200dbar no data,but additional pressure sensor at 80dbar• All other ones: complete 3-year record
109m

SBE37 Mooring Design:
• Depth of instruments: 30m, 80m, 130m, 200m
• Pressure sensors at upper and lower instrument
• Flexible, made for bending due to icebergs

First evaluation of pressure data:Example: Pressure data KS05 upper instrumentRed: original dataBlue: 5 day low-pass filtered dataYellow: meanGreen: standard deviation

• Mean and standard deviation for low-pass filtered data• Higher variability at 30m than at 200m as expected• If pressure difference higher than 0.5dbar before and after deployment exponential fit was used

• Upper level: seasonal cycle, lowest salinity in summer
• Deepening of isohalines towards Ellesmere Island at 80 and 130dbar

• Obvious seasonal variability, vertical instrument excursion and transient events...
• Was winter 2003 anomalous?

What next?!
• Remaining calibration issues.
• Plot some sections - “snapshots” in time and mean picture in any given season.
• Look at particular events (and their signature in ADCP and IPS data too).
• Quantify changes in baroclinic transport on various timescales (and examine their causes).
• Lots lots more.....!
