    170907-N-PO203-020 GREENLAND (Sep. 7, 2017) Ignatius Rigor, University of Washington, and Lt. Emily Motz, from the National Ice Center, discuss the latest weather data in the high Arctic prior to a buoy deployment mission out of Thule Air Force Base in Greenland. Two Air Air-Deployable Expendable Ice Buoys (AXIB) were deployed from a Royal Danish Air Force C-130 aircraft as part of the International Arctic Buoy Program (IABP). The IABP is a conglomeration of global participants that maintain a network of drifting buoys in the Arctic Ocean that provide meteorological and oceanographic data for real-time operational requirements and research purposes.
