Conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD), snow and ice thickess and apparent resisitivity on the Bykovsky Peninsula, Lena Delta, in April and July 2017

In April, four ice cores were drilled offshore to measure sea ice thickness, snow thickness, and water depth. In July, multiple conductivity, temperature, and depths (CTD) sensors were deployed to measure seawater properties like temperature, salinity, and electrical conductivity.

Furthermore, electrical resistivity surveys were taken perpendicular to and crossing the shoreline of the Bykovsky Peninsula to estimate the depth of ice-bearing permafrost.
