Dataset specification

  • Title: ClimateBasis Zackenberg - Radiation - Net radiation (NR-lite), 200 cm (W/m2)
  • Description: Net radiation (NR-lite) measured on a single climate stations at 200 cm above ground as a 60min average (W/m2). The climate station is located north of the station at 44 m a.s.l.. The timeseries starts in 1995. Please read the metadata file provided with the data for comments related to the data in this timeseries. Radiation:Radiation ClimateBasis Zackenberg:The ClimateBasis programme monitors climate and hydrology in Zackenberg, Kobbefjord and Disko (Qeqertarsuaq) and is run by Asiaq - Greenland Survey. The collected data build base-line information on climate variability and trends for all the other sub-programmes within GEM and serve as a trustworthy foundation for adaptation strategies for the Greenlandic society. The stations are embedded in Asiaq’s extensive climate and hydrology monitoring network. Furthermore, the run-off data is delivered to the World Hydrological Cycle Observing System (WHYCOS) and the Global Runoff Data Centre (GRDC) networks.
