Full description

Skin temperature data over the East Antarctic pack ice zone were recorded by the RAPPLS airborne instrument package using a KT-19II infrared pyrometer.

The KT-19II infrared pyrometer was manufactured by heitronics, and sees a spectrum of 8-12um.

IR and location data were logged to a Windows PC using a serial port logger developed by AAD science technical support. Due to some logging issues, substantial post-processing work was done by the AAD sea ice science group to ensure that recorded temperatures were correctly geolocated.

Skin temperature data were not collected on two flights: Alpha [12 September 2007] and Foxtrot [14 September 2007]

On two further flights, data were collected but the raw log files were so badly munged that we could not confidently tie locations to temperatures. These were: Tango [30 September 2007] and Uniform [1 October 2007]

The data are presented in .csv files for each flight showing time and date. lat, lon, recorded temp [deg K], temp converted to C.

To visualise the data, .kmz files that can be viewed in Google Earth or NASA's worldwind virtual globes are provided, one for each flight. Skin temperature is represented by a coloured dot at each measurement point. Clicking on each poijt will show its location and recorded temperature. The description field of each .kmz file provides a colour scale.
