US-ITASE Data Sets available at the Antarctic Glaciological Data Center

• Ice Thickness and Internal Layer Depth Along the 2001 and 2002 US ITASE Traverses
• US International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition (US ITASE): GPR Profiles and Accumulation Mapping
• US International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition 400 MHz Subsurface Radar Profiles
• US International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition (US ITASE) Glaciochemical Data

The Antarctic Glaciological Data Center (AGDC) staff and the US ITASE community are developing a data management plan for US ITASE data. Archiving of these data will ensure that:

1. US ITASE PIs and their data sets receive data management support during the proposed period of exclusive use. The AGDC will provide password-protected access to an ftp storage site for use by US ITASE investigators only.
2. US ITASE data will be available to the broader scientific community with full data management support following the period of exclusive use.

To begin the data submission process contact Rob Bauer (bauer@nsidc.org).
