Abstract

In-situ airborne observations collected during flight 370 on 09 August 2022 by the Meteorological Airborne Science Instrumentation (MASIN) on board the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) Twin-otter aircraft for the Arctic Summer-time Cyclones: Dynamics and Sea-ice Interaction project. This dataset contains the core meteorological data from the MASIN instrument suite.

Data were collected over the Svalbard, Norway area.
