Short summary
In September 2012 five Aerosonde unmanned aircraft were used to observe the atmosphere and ocean over the Terra Nova Bay polynya, Antarctica to explore the details of interactions between the ocean, sea ice, and atmosphere. A total of 14 flights and nearly 168 flight hours were completed as part of this project. A data set containing the atmospheric and surface data as well as operational aircraft data have been submitted to the United States Antarctic Program Data Coordination Center.
