Okhotsk Soya sea ice observation dataset in 1997

This dataset was obtained using PV Soya in the southern Sea of Okhotsk in February 1997, in collaboration between Japan Coast Guard and Hokkaido University to monitor the ice conditions associated with the global warming and improve our understanding of sea ice processes. The dataset is composed of the meteorological data (surface air pressure, air temperature, vapor pressure, and winds) recorded on board at an interval of one minute, the ice thickness data measured with a video system, and hourly visual observation records conducted according to the international ASPeCt protocol. The data format is available in the file, named Readme_soya_1997.docx.

本数据集于1997年2月在鄂霍次克海南部海域通过PV Soya号获取，由日本海上保安厅（Japan Coast Guard）与北海道大学（Hokkaido University）合作完成，旨在监测与全球变暖相关的海冰状况，加深对海冰过程的科学认知。数据集包含三类数据：一是以1分钟为间隔船载记录的气象数据，涵盖地面气压、气温、水汽压与风速；二是通过视频系统测得的冰厚数据；三是遵循国际ASPeCt协议开展的每小时目视观测记录。数据格式说明可在名为Readme_soya_1997.docx的文件中查阅。
