Solar radiation over and under sea ice was measured by an autonomous platform, installed on drifting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean during the SV TARA drift campaign in 2007 (station name 2007R24). The resulting time series describes radiation measurements as a function of place and time between 28 April 2007 and 05 September 2007 in sample intervals of 30 minutes. The radiation measurements have been performed with spectral radiometers. All data are given in full spectral resolution interpolated to 1.0 nm, and integrated over the entire wavelength range (broadband, total: 320 to 950 nm) and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR, 400 to 700 nm). Two sensors, solar irradiance and upward reflected solar irradiance, were mounted on a on a platform about 2 m above the sea ice surface. The third sensor was mounted 1.4 m underneath the sea ice measuring the downward transmitted irradiance.
