This dataset contains data collected by 10 drifting autonoumous ice buoys (Metocean CALIB) during the experiment ACSYS 2003. The buoys were deployed from a transport aircraft the northern part of Fram Strait on 27 March 2003. While drifting through Fram Strait the buoys delivered at approximately 1-hourly time intervalls position, sea level pressure and temperature for several months with the last buoy transmitting until end of July 2003.
