Conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) vertical profiles from Lake Joyce, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, November 2014

Vertical profiles of conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) were collected from Lake Joyce, a perennially ice-covered lake in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica. Water column observations were made in November 2014 using a YSI 6600 multiparameter probe in the deepest region of the lake, as identified by Mackey et al. (2018). The water column was accessed by drilling a 10-inch wide hole through the perennial ice cover using a Jiffy drill. This data package includes CTD profiles, as well as measurements of salinity, total dissolved solids (TDS), dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, and pressure.
