Arctic LTER Toolik Field Station Weather Station Data Files.

Weather data has been collected at Toolik Lake (68 degrees 38'N, 149 degrees 36'W) since June 1988 to present time. Data collected includes air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed at 1 and 5 meters, wind direction at 5 meters, global solar radiation, photosynthetically active radiation, barometric pressure, precipitation, soil temperatures, lake temperature, lake depth, and evaporation pan depth and pan water temperature. Most sensors are read every minute and then averaged or totaled every hour. The exceptions are soil temperatures, lake temperature, lake depth, and evaporation pan depth and pan water temperature which are read every 10 minutes and averaged every three hours. Pan evaporation is only measured during the summer months. For the global solar radiation and photosynthetically active radiation sensors no attempt is made to correct for frost or snow on the sensors during the winter months. Therefore winter radiation data should be view as suspect and used only qualitatively. See Sensors for a detailed description of each sensor used.

Hourly data are in the files yyDLTLH.DAT, the three hourly data are in yyDLTLO.DAT, and daily summaries are in yyDLTLD.DAT, where yy is the year in which the data are collected.  A second datalogger about 700 meters from the main weather station logs air and soil temperatures and photosynthetically active radiation in the experimental treatment plots. Treatments include greenhouse, shading, and fertilization. In the control plot wind speed and direction, global solar radiation and unfrozen precipitation are also measured. This station is also used as a backup to the main weather station. The original data is in file yyDLTDAT.ZIP which is archived at The Marine Biological Lab, Woods Hole, MA.
