Borehole data from George VI Ice Shelf
Year-long mooring dataset from beneath George VI Ice Shelf between January 2012 and January 2013. Contains turbulence mooring data from two instruments initially at 2.57 m and 13.57 m beneath the ice base. High resolution 3D velocity data and temperature data at two instruments are included, as well as low-resolution thermistor data.
The processing of this data was funded by a grant from the Natural Environment Research Council, NE/L002507/1.
