Borehole electric log from the southern sector of Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula, December 2022

This is an electric log of a borehole drilled by hot water to 120 m (Site 1) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. The borehole was drilled in December 2022 to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project.

Dataset
Statement

Methodology:

The dataset is an electric log from a borehole drilled to 120 m (Site 1) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica, in December 2022. It was acquired using a slim-hole electric borehole probe manufactured by Robertson Geologging Ltd, which is comprised of a source electrode that emits a low-frequency bi-directional electric current. Boreholes were logged whilst the electric probe was travelling up the borehole.

Data collection:

Logs were acquired using Robertson Geologging electric probe, mini winch and Micrologger II.

Data quality:

Data are unaltered from those logged in the field. Due to the field site location on an ice shelf, the voltage reference fish was submerged in the ice surface around 5 m from the winch and 15 m from the borehole. Missing data are presented as -999.5.
