Today we had a great, sunny weather. We could finally make a lot of measurements of the aerosol optical thickness, using micro tops, getting sunbathing. Those data are sending to Aeronet (the NASA Aerosol Network) after the cruise. We are moving North along the section Z. Unfortunately our rosette doesn't work, again. I don't remember which time is it now. This year is really special for this cruise and it's a real test for Oceania. There is still something to do, to fix and the time is running. We have to manage our measurements untill the 21 of July when we should be in Longyearbyen. We hope that we will not have problems with the sea ice entering the Isfjorden. Keep yours fingers crossed for us. Regards, Agnieszka.
