Deployed 2 Sept 2026 by helicopter from the Swedish icebreaker Oden during Canada-Sweden Arctic Ocean 2026. Installed by Leif Eriksson (Chalmers), Chimira Andres (University of Victoria, Canada), Einar Sjöblom (Swedish Polar Research Secretariat) and Mikael Friberg (Swedish Polar Research Secretariat) for Jack Landy (UiT The Arctic University of Norway). A large, mostly flat floe with a few small ridges; the site is a flat spot away from them. End of melt season, with nilas forming around the floe. Nothing else was installed at the site. The team also ran a GEM-2 survey for ice thickness, a magnaprobe survey for snow depth and four drill holes, and tested a helicopter-mounted lidar for surface roughness. GoPro from the helicopter, photos on the ice and Insta360 video.
