dc.description.abstract | Ice-tethered ocean profiling systems are an essential tool for the year-round observation
of physical and biogeochemical properties of the Arctic Ocean. Despite being considered
expendable equipment due to the challenging logistics, their recovery is attractive mainly
due to two factors: If the sensors can be retrieved, this allows for their post calibration,
which helps to assess sensor drift and biofouling. In addition, the recovery of such
expensive equipment can ease off financial pressure on autonomous ocean observation
programs by enabling the reuse of central elements after refurbishment. Here we present
a method how such profiling systems can be recovered from sea ice by 3 people in about
4 h, without the on-site availability of a fully-equipped vessel. The presented technique
combines rope techniques frommountain rescue applicationswith lightweight equipment
and procedures similar to those used for the deployment of such instruments. We
provide a detailed description of the whole process, provide suggestions for potential
improvements as well as suggestions toward improved instrument design favoring
recoverability of future deployments. We conclude that good preparation and practice
of the relevant rope procedures is critical to mission success and that a well-selected
range of necessary equipment makes the process much more efficient. | en_US |
