Two field experiments took place in 1978 as part of a project to study ocean wave attenuation in the marginal pack ice zone and the effect of ocean waves on floe break-up and ice dynamics. The main partners in the project are the Scott Polar Research Institute and the Electromagnetics Institute, Technical University of Denmark (TUD), Lyngby, with funding from the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Washington DC, and the Danish government. The first experiment was a pilot study carried out in co-operation with C-CORE (Centre for Cold Oceans Resources Engineering) at Memorial University of Newfoundland, St John's, and took place in the Labrador Sea. The second experiment was a major field study carried out in September 1978 from Mesters Vig, east Greenland. The project will be completed by a second main experiment at Mesters Vig in summer 1979, with supporting experiments in the Bering Sea and west Greenland in spring 1979
