AGDC Releases Temperature Profile Data

The Antarctic Glaciological Data Center (AGDC) at NSIDC is pleased to announce the release of a new data set, Temperature Profile of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet Divide Deep Borehole. This data set reports depth versus temperatures in the fluid-filled portion of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet Divide (WAIS–D) deep borehole (70 to 3328 meters depth). Data were acquired on December 5, 2011 and have been post-processed to convert resistance to temperature.
