Arctic Ice Mass Balance Buoy Network: Collaboration with DAMOCLES

This project involves deploying buoys to study Arctic ice mass balance, in coordination with DAMOCLES. Activities include data analysis, attributing changes, and integrating with atmospheric and ocean sensors. Partnerships with various organizations enhance research efforts. Data is accessible online. Plans for future expansion aim to improve understanding of ongoing changes in the Arctic region.
