Sea Ice Melt Ponds: Integrated Albedo

Wavelength integrated albedos (from 300-3000 nm) were measured every 2.5 m along the transect line, according to a tape measure laid out along the transect daily. The instrument used was a Kipp and Zonen CM14 Albedometer with voltage output read either manually using a voltmeter or with a Campbell CR10 Datalogger.
