  1. ApRES (Automated phase-sensitive Radar Echo Sounding) data at Nansen Ice Sheet

    ApRES (Automated phase-sensitive Radar Echo Sounding) data to detect the change of ice thickness and basal melt Investigation of the behaviour of ice sheet

  2. Mooring data in the Amundsen Sea from 2016 to 2018.

    In order to monitor the temporal and spatial variation of circumpolar deep water (CDW) and its effect on the rapid melting of glaciers in the Amundsen Sea, an extensive oceanographic survey was conducted on the 2017/2018 expedition. During the 2018 Amundsen Sea cruise (ANA08B) by IBRV Araon. Identify the temporal and spatial variation of Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) in the Amundsen Sea

  3. LADCP data to observe current of Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) in the Amundsen Sea in 2017/2018.

    In order to monitor the temporal and spatial variation of circumpolar deep water (CDW) and its effect on the rapid melting of glaciers in the Amundsen Sea, an extensive oceanographic survey was conducted on the 2017/2018 expedition. During the 2018 Amundsen Sea cruise (ANA08B) by IBRV Araon, a total of 53 CTD/LADCP stations were visited. Identify the temporal and spatial variation of Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) in the Amundsen Sea

Popular Data

  1. GNSSS data of King Sejong Station, 2025

    This dataset consists of high-precision GNSS observation data collected from January to May 2025 at King Sejong Station, King George Island, Antarctica. The data can be used for monitoring crustal movements, surface stability, and glacial displacement in polar geophysical research.

  2. New Catalogue of Thwaites Glacier Subglacial Lakes and Their Activity Revealed by CryoSat-2 Altimetry

    This dataset presents a new catalogue of active subglacial lakes beneath Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica, identified using CryoSat-2 satellite radar altimetry. It details the boundaries, areas, and elevation changes of each lake, complete with 95% confidence intervals. The dataset also contains estimates of ice speed changes in the TG's grounding zone. For citation purposes, refer to the article by B-H Kim, C-K Lee*, K-W Seo, W S Lee, and J-W Park, 'New Catalogue of Thwaites Glacier Subglacial Lakes and Their Activity Revealed by CryoSat-2 Altimetry,' currently under revision for the Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface.

  3. Tidal variation observation of the King Sejong Station, Antarctica in 2025

    The tidal observation equipment at the King Sejong Station in Antarctica was installed by the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency in December 2019. The equipment measures tidal waves at 1-minute intervals by measuring changes in water pressure according to sea level height in harsh Antarctic environments such as sea ice.
