ITP116 was deployed on a 1.5 m ice floe in the Transpolar Drift on August 21, 2019 at 89° 59.4 N, 64° 7.7 E in collaboration with the Coordinated Arctic Acoustic Thermometry Experiment (CAATEX) on the NoCGV Svalbard. The ITP is operating on a fast sampling schedule of 4 one-way profiles between 5 and 760 m depth each day.
