Dataset specification

  • Title: ClimateBasis Zackenberg - Pressure - Air pressure @ 200cm - 60min sample (hPa)
  • Description: Air pressure, 200cm - 60min sample (hPa) Pressure:Pressure 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.

http://data.g-e-m.dk/datasets?doi=10.17897/WG9V-3J16&column=Air+pressure%2c+200cm+-+60min+sample+(hPa) Air pressure, 200cm - 60min sample (hPa) hPa Number Air pressure measured on two proximal climate stations at 200 cm above ground as a 60min sample (hPa). The double masted climate station is located north of the station at 44 m a.s.l.. The timeseries starts in 1995. Quality control is performed on both datasets from the double mast system. The combined time series is calculated as an average of the 2 sensors, or if data is missing from 1 sensor the other used in conjunction with a regression. Data comments:
