Microcat, current meter and ADCP data from moorings of the eastern Iceland Basin array as part of UK OSNAP (Overturning in the Subpolar North Atlantic Programme) from 2020-2022

UK OSNAP (Overturning in the Subpolar North Atlantic Programme) is a NERC Large Grant (2013-2020) and forms part of the international OSNAP array put in place to measure the full depth, basin-wide overturning circulation and associate transport of heat and freshwater (www.ukosnap.org). The array consists of a series of vertical moorings in the boundaries of the subpolar basins, supplemented by glider missions over shallow topography and floats (RAFOS floats to track the pathways of the overflow waters, and profiling floats to provide temperature and salinity information in the interior basins). This dataset has data from 3 moorings deployed in 2020 and recovered in 2022 at the eastern Iceland Basin, operated by UK OSNAP. The 3 moorings were deployed on cruise DY120 (2020) for a two-year long deployment and recovered on JC238 (2022). The data sets are timeseries of pressure, temperature, salinity and currents and have been fully processed, calibrated and quality controlled.
