ITP 069 Deployment operations

The fourth and final Ice-Based Observatory (IBO) deployed during JOIS 2013, included ITP 69 with biosuite sensors on the profiler and a SAMI pCO2 clamped on the wire to further increase the variables measured at the IBO site. In addition, a S-IMBB was deployed on the same floe while other scientists obtained detailed ice surveys, core samples, and made other measurements providing a detailed description of the initial conditions at the site.
