Intermediate processing stage of horizontal particle flux data collected using a snow particle counter on board the R/V Akademik Tryoshnikov in the Southern Ocean during the austral summer of 2016/17 as part of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE).

Dataset abstract

Flux of particles (snow, rain and other particles including sea spray) were recorded passing through a photo-electric snow particle counter installed on board the R/V Akademik Tryoshnikov as part of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE). Data were recorded from January to March 2017 in the Southern Ocean. Here we present an intermediate step in data processing, with relative horizontal particle flux of particles with a size between 36 – 2000 μm averaged over one-minute periods. Data are presented in daily files.
