St. Laurent. The ITP operated on a standard sampling schedule of 2 one-way profiles between 7 and 760 m depth each day, nearly completely encircling the perimeter of the Beaufort Gyre anticyclonic circulation cell in two years. Until July 30, 2008, the ITP profiler transmitted the information via the inductive modem (IM) and Iridium, but ceased for no apparent reason.\u00a0 Location data was still being obtained and transmitted by the surface package so that when the system was recovered in October 2009 (during JOIS 2009), an additional 800 profiles were recovered from the underwater unit. \u00a0Only about half of these include complete profiles because in early 2009 the instrument dragged on the Chukchi\/Northwind topography and became inverted and tangled on the tether (as recovered).\u00a0 Several hours after recovery,\u00a0ITP32\u00a0<\/a>was deployed in the same hole from which ITP8 was recovered, only a short distance from the edge of the 2.5 m thick icefloe.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t ITP 8 Overview Deployment Location:\u00a08\/11\/2007, 23:00 UTC at 78\u00b0 21’N, 154\u00b0 1′ W Recovery Location:\u00a010\/3\/2009, 23:00 UTC at 80\u00b0 19’N, 151\u00b0 54’W Duration:\u00a0767 days Distance Traveled:\u00a07272 km Number of profiles:\u00a01570 in 784 days Other instruments:\u00a0none ITP8 was deployed on a 3.49 m ice floe in the Beaufort Gyre as part of the\u00a0Beaufort Gyre Observing System…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":83,"featured_media":0,"parent":871,"menu_order":8,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"tpl-sidebar.php","meta":{"advanced-sidebar-menu\/link-title":"","advanced-sidebar-menu\/exclude-page":false},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1153"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1153"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1153\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3798,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1153\/revisions\/3798"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/871"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"ITP](\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/itp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2019\/08\/DSCN4450_106239.jpg\" "\\"DSCN4450_106239\\"")
