Short summary
Greenland fjords are changing rapidly, but observations in winter and early spring are rare. We collected 73 temperature and salinity profiles from southwest Greenland fjords during two ship campaigns in March and April 2025. The data reveal the start of spring surface freshening, strongest near glacier-fed fjords, while deeper waters changed little. The open dataset will help improve studies of glacier melt, ocean change, and climate models.
