12/2-15

Position: 86° 53.5' N, 57° 08' W, temperature - 24° C, air pressure |003 hPa, wind 11 knots from the W. Ice drift 0.3 knot to the SE. Shooting seismic reflection all day. Started work to raise the second current meter from 800 meter depth. The location is now 5 meter from a pressure ridge. Using the underwater camera, we saw the Kevlar line diverted away from the pressure ridge. To recover the instrument require drilling holes to follow the line until we reach the end of the under thrusted ice floe. This work has to be deferred until late spring/early sommer.
