This dataset contains the data connected to the publication titled "Melting of ffloating ice cylinders in fresh and saline environments". 

It is structured as follows:
    - each folder is named after the day of the experimental campaing; 
    - of these, each subfolder is named after which experiment it refers to (1st, 2nd, 3rd, ...); 
    - in each experiment's folder there is a folder that contains the contours of the cross-sections of the cylinders;
    - together with the contours there is a text file called "info", which contains the relavant parameters of the experiment. 

The contours are obtained with a background illumination setup, see the connected publication for further details. 

The contours are expressed in pixel coordinates. To transform in physical units, either refer to the data processing codes (available where referred in the publication), or use the initial radius as provided in the "info" file.
