Collections allows the user to search in subsets of the existing catalogue. The collections are primarily data management projects that have been incorporated in the ADC catalogue. The collections currently served through ADC include (datasets may belong to multiple data collections):
ADC is the full collection of this service CC is the CryoClim collection
In order to search a specific data collection select that collection. If no data collection is selected all collections are searched.

Abstract:
The ARKXXIV/1 cruise of the German icebreaker Polarstern took place from 20 June
to 10 July 2009 and was focused on oceanographic investigations in the northern
Nordic Sea. The main work sites were Fram Strait between Svalbard and Greenland
and in the Greenland Sea. Hydrographic mesurements during the cruise included
the standard section in the nothern Fram Strait along 78°50N, which has been
occupied regularly since 1997 (27 stations)

Abstract:
This data was collected as part of an international joint effort during IPY to
conduct a quasi-synotpic Pan-Arctic survey. During this cruise (ARK-XXIII/3),
the work of the previous year (ARK-XXII/2) was extended toward the East-Siberian
regions with a CTD transect in the southern parts of the basins from the
Canadian Basin to the Nansen-Gakkel Ridge

Abstract:
VAGABOND is a dedicated base camp for DAMOCLES, which main objective is to study
sea ice and brines formation. France Pinczon du Sel and Eric Brossier bring
their polar yacht VAGABOND and their experience to work with scientists for 5
years, on the East Coast of Spitsbergen 2004-2009. During the stay,
oceanographic, meteorological, radiometric and atmospheric soundings were made
in Storfjorden.

Abstract:
Arctic Ocean Experiment 2001 AOE-2001 was an icebreaker based field experiment
with a target on the formation of low clouds in the central Arctic summer during
July and August 2001. A main portion of the 2-moth experiment was a 3-week ice
drift from 89 to 88 degN. Main components of the meteorology part of the
experiment were surface-based remote- sensing observations, general meteorology
observations (weather staion and soundings) and boundary-layer observations on
the ice. For a complete review of the experiment and a full list of instruments,
see Tjernström et al. 2004 ("The summertime Arctic atmosphere: Meteorological
measurements during the Arctic Ocean Experiment (AOE-2001)" in Bulletin of the
American Meteorological Society, 85, 1305 - 1321, and its on-line supplement
"Experimental equipment: A supplement to The summertime Arctic atmosphere:
Meteorological measurements during the Arctic Ocean Experiment (AOE-2001)").
Observations included in the dataset:
Observations from 2D-wind sonic anemometer on the mast of Oden during AOE-2001. Beware of flow distortion from the ship.
One-hour averaged cloud base observations from cloud base lidar and cloud radar during AOE-2001
Instant cloud-top observations from S-band cloud radar operating in two modes, a low-range high-resolution and a high-range low-resolution mode, respectively, obtained during AOE-2001. The presented data is the highest cloud top altitude observed.
Various meteorological observations from a mast placed on an ice-floe during AOE-2001
Turbulence statistics from sonic anemometer at 15 meters on the mast averaged over 15 minute obtained during AOE-2001
Turbulence statistics from sonic anemometer at 5 meters on the mast averaged over 15 minute obtained during AOE-2001
Various meteorological observations from Odens weather station situated at 35 metres ASL during AOE-2001. Winds may be subject to considerable flow distortion. Precipitation is in arbitrary units.
One-hour averaged precipitation from present-weather-sensor, which measures no. of precip particles falling past the sensor, during AOE-2001
Wind profile data from 915 MHz profiler on foredeck of Oden obtained during AOE-2001
Atmospheric baloon sounding data obtained during AOE-2001. The observations are interpolated to a fixed grid for plotting purposes.
Measurements from the high range of the S-band cloud radar obtained during AOE-2001. The variables presented are radar reflectivity and hydro-meteor fall velocity.
Measurements from the low range of the S-band cloud radar obtained during AOE-2001. The variables presented are radar reflectivity and hydro-meteor fall velocity.
Temperature profiles measured by a scanning radiometer obtained during AOE-2001.
Measurements from the sodar obtained during AOE-2001. Note that the altitude for each record varies in time.
