Abstract
This dataset is the Deep ICE (DICE) radar from the ROSETTA-Ice Project, which took place during the austral summers of November 2015 - December 2017. Data was collected along the ROSETTA-Ice Survey Grid where possible. DICE is a dual channel, pulse-chirp depth sounding radar system on board the IcePod. This configuration means that the data can be processed in four pulse/channel configurations: 1usCh1, 3usCh1, 1usCh2, and 3usCh2. The preferred configuration for layer interpretation and data analyses is the 3usCh1 DICE, which is what is archived here. Additional detail is included in the ReadMe, including flight lines with data loss. This data was processed at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory using MATLAB scripts developed in-house by Tejendra Dhakal, Chris Bertinato, and Nicholas Frearson using CReSIS 2014 MCoRDS scripts as a foundation. As such, all processed levels of this data product are MAT-files. Included in this dataset are the following:
* DICE level2a 3usCh1 data as MAT-files, separated by ROSETTA-Ice Survey Grid Line Number
* DICE Ice Base digitization picks, rendered using traditional MATLAB picking script
* DICE IceBase digitization frame-by-frame picks and images (picked and un-picked) as JPGs output from picking process
