ITP10 was deployed on a 2.9 m thick icefloe from the Russian icebreaker "Akademik Federov" as part of the European Union DAMOCLES Program in 2007. On the same icefloe, a US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) Ice Mass Balance Buoy (IMB 2007-H) was also installed. The ITP operated on a typical sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day.
