GC-Net Level 1 historical automated weather station data (ongoing)
The Greenland Climate Network (GC-Net) is a set of Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) set up and managed by the late Prof. Dr. Konrad (Koni) Steffen on the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). This first station, "Swiss Camp" or the "ETH-CU" camp, was initiated in 1990 by A. Ohmura et al. (1991, 1992) with... -
Far Infrared Radiative Closure Experiment For Antarctic Clouds – FIRCLOUDS - Reflectivity and vertical velocity of ice crystals from micro rain radar
The main objective of this project is a complete spectral characterization of cirrus and mixed phase clouds in order to evaluate the radiative models in the FIR regime, where the clouds effect is very strong, and systematic spectral measurements are scarcely available. The required spectral... -

The main objective of this project is a complete spectral characterization of cirrus and mixed phase clouds in order to evaluate the radiative models in the FIR regime, where the clouds effect is very strong, and systematic spectral measurements are scarcely available. The required spectral... -
Dome C Tropospheric Observer (DoCTOr)
The DoCTOr (Dome C Tropospheric Observer) project aims to establish an integrated monitoring system to measure simultaneously, continuously and with a high temporal resolution the water vapor and temperature vertical profiles and the radiative exchanges vs. altitude. The monitoring will enable us... -
Daily averaged weather timeseries (air temperature, pressure, wind speed, wind direction, precipitation, sky cover) at Palmer Station, Antarctica...
Weather data acquisition was originally by manual observation and continued with an automated system installed in Nov 2001. Measurements began shifting from manual to automated observations in June 2003 until the manual observations were ended on December 12, 2003. Data are collected, compiled,... -
CLIVA: CLImatic trends of stratospheric Vortex in Antarctica
The project aims to carry out a climatological analysis of the dynamics and structure of the Antarctic polar stratospheric vortex over the last decade 1993-2003 and its relationship with the 'Ozone (O3) hole' phenomenon. In particular will be evaluated all the data from the ground by LIDAR,... -
