ITP109 was deployed on a 0.75 m ice floe in the Beaufort Sea on September 20, 2018 at 77° 34.0 N, 145° 7.8 W as part of the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) during the JOIS 2018 cruise on the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent. The ITP is operating on a standard sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day.
