ITP117 was deployed on a 1.35 m ice floe in the Beaufort Sea on September 19, 2019 at 80° 55.0 N, 135° 31.9 W as part of the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) during the JOIS 2019 cruise on the CCGS Louis S. St. Laurent. On the same icefloe, a prototype Tethered Ocean Profiler (TOP), and a US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) Seasonal Ice Mass Balance Buoy 3 was also installed. The ITP is operating on a standard sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day and includes a fixed SAMI PCO2 with ODO and PAR at 5 m depth.
