Sampling scheme and sample characteristics. Samples were taken through a vertical profile, from atmosphere (ATM) to four layers of snow (SL0, SL1, SL2, and SL3), including the saline snow layer (SL3), to sea ice brine (BR) taken from a brine-filled sackhole and seawater (SW) below the ice. Color codes for sample type apply to Figs 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 (and S1). Asterisks indicate measurements made on bulk (melted) snow samples. NA indicates not available.
