| Summary: | This dataset contains information about data collected by automatic weather stations (AWS) at three sites (Site J, 2040 meters above sea level.; Dye-2, 2120 meters above sea level; EKT, 2360 meters above sea level) in the percolation zone of southwest Greenland between spring 2017 and fall 2019. The stations recorded near-surface air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, shortwave incoming and reflected radiation, longwave incoming and outgoing radiation, and relative surface height. Subsurface temperatures were measured at 28 depths below the surface. Meteorological variables were sampled every 5 minutes while surface height and subsurface temperatures were sampled every hour. The data series have been quality checked and corrected as necessary. The dataset includes the following files: README.pdf : general metadata of this dataset. It contains information on data availability as well as variables measured at each site. DataCorrection.pdf : metadata regarding the data corrections applied to the AWS data. AWS_SITE_startDATE_endDATE_5min.txt : 5 minutes data. AWS_SITE_startDATE_endDATE_hourly.txt : hourly data. AWS_SITE_startDATE_endDATE_daily.txt : daily data. AWS_SITE_Metadata.pdf : site specific weather station metadata. It contains all the information such as station history, instruments, calibrations, site visits, etc. AWS_SITE_QuickLook.html : interactive html file displaying hourly meteorological data for a quick look (only Site J and EKT).
