Rysgaard, Søren; Boone, Wieter; Kirillov, Sergey A; Dmitrenko, Igor — 2024 Time series of currents were obtained in the period October 2013 and May 2014 by use of an ice-tethered mooring in Young Sound, Greenland. At YS03 (74.310 N, 20.304 W) The mooring consisted of a 300 kHz downward-looking Teledyne RDI Workhorse Sentinel acoustic Doppler current profiled (ADCP) measuring horizontal and vertical current velocities. Velocity precision and resolution were ±1% and ±5 cm s, respectively, while compass accuracy and resolution were ±2 and 0.1 degrees. The ADCP was set to sample 39 bins (bin size of 2m), where each 10 min sample consists of averages of 20 pings. The first and last bins were set at 6 and 84 m depth. Velocities were corrected for magnetic deviation (18.5) and samples with insufficient acoustic backscatter in the water column were eliminated with the RDI ADCP software. For further details see Boone et al., 2017 (Circulation and fjord-shelf exchange during the ice-covered period in Young Sound-Tyrolerfjord, Northwest Greenland (74o N). Estuar. Coast. Shelf Sci., 15, 194-205. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2017.06.021 ).

Rysgaard, Søren; Boone, Wieter; Kirillov, Sergey A; Dmitrenko, Igor — 2024 Time series of currents, salinity (conductivity), temperature Chlorophyl-a and CDOM were obtained in the period May- June 2014 by use of a McLane ice-tethered profiler in Young Sound, Greenland. At YS05 (74.238 N, 20.188 W) the mooring consisted of a 600 kHz downward-looking Nortek Aquadopp ADCP and an SBE 52-MP CTD (accuracy temperature ±0.002 C and conductivity ±0.0003 Sm-1) and WetLab ECO triplet (Cholorphyll-a and CDOM). Velocities were corrected for magnetic deviation (18.5o). The water column sampling spanned between 1.5 and 30 m depth every 30 min. The ADCP was set to sample 80 bins (bin size of 0.5 m) and each bin consisted of a 1 min ensemble average of 60 pings. The first and last bins were centred at 1m and 41 m depth. Only bins between 2.5 and 30 m were adequately measured.

Rysgaard, Søren; Boone, Wieter; Kirillov, Sergey A; Dmitrenko, Igor; Ruiz-Castillo, Eugenio — 2024 CTD data was obtained in the period April-June 2014 in Young Sound, Greenland. CTD casts were performed using an SBE-19 plus CTD (accuracy: ±0.005 C and ±0.0005 Sm-1) which was lowered through ice-drilled holes. In total, 4 transects were performed and covered from the mouth to the head of the fjord. Standardized routines of Seabird software were used on the data set for quality control and bin averaging. The data sets consist of profiles of practical salinity, temperature, potential temperature, dissolved oxygen, fluorescence, turbidity, and irradiance (PAR).
