Ice beacons are used to monitor sea ice motion, which is an important element in mass balance calculations, ice thermodynamic modeling, ice management and ecosystem studies. During the IPY-CFL project a total of 22 ice beacons were launched in Franklin Bay from November 2007 to May 2008. Measured parameters include latitude, longitude, speed and direction.
