Turbulent velocity fluctuations in the ice shelf-ocean boundary layer beneath Larsen C Ice Shelf were observed using two turbulence instrument clusters (TICs) deployed 2.5 m and 13.5 m beneath the ice shelf base in December 2011. Each TIC sampled the velocity fluctuations at a rate of 5 Hz, and were operated in burst mode with 15 minutes of data being collected every two hours. 4600 bursts were collected over a period of 392 days. 320 bursts failed the quality control checks, and were removed from the dataset. The TICs were deployed as part of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Sub Ice Shelf Boundary Layer Experiment. Funding was provided by the NERC grant NE/H009205/1.

Magnitude and x and y components of surface speed on the Larsen C ice shelf, Antarctica. The datasets are annual means from 2015 to 2022 at a horizontal resolution of 100 m. The data are based on feature tracking of Sentinel 1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite data. The velocities were created to support a NERC-funded project investigating ice-shelf rift propagation, by Prof. Adrian Luckman. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

This is an electric log of a borehole drilled by hot water to 120 m (Site 1) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. The borehole was drilled in December 2022 to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

These are digital optical televiewer logs of two boreholes drilled by hot water to 120 m (Site 1) and 160 m (Site 2) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. Boreholes were drilled in December 2022 to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

The datasets are temperature time series from fibre-optic strings installed into two boreholes on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. Boreholes were drilled in December 2022 to 160 m to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project.
