Abstract
This dataset contains surface layer turbulent fluxes and meteorological variables derived from instruments on board the Facility for Airborne Atmospheric Measurement (FAAM) and Meteorological Airborne Science Instrumentation (MASIN) instrumentation measurements onboard the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) Twin Otter aircraft. These data were based on measurements made during the Aerosol Cloud Coupling and Climate Interactions in the Arctic (ACCACIA) project.
