Image of The Day caption:
WHOI engineers Jeff Pietro (left) and Kris Newhall attached a cylindrical profiler instrument to a wire hanging into the Arctic Ocean recently near the North Pole. Pietro, Newhall and senior research specialist Rick Krishfield (green parka) made a fast spring trip to the Arctic in April to install an Ice-Tethered Profiler (ITP) system, the latest in a series of ITPs monitoring changing Arctic Ocean conditions. The ITP drifts with the ice floe, measuring ocean properties day and night and transmitting the data to shore.
