The automatic weather stations at the Australian stations (Casey, Davis, Macquarie Island, and Mawson) were installed by the Bureau of Meteorology. They collect information on the following (in the following units): date Timehh:mm wind speed knots wind direction degrees air temperature degrees celsius relative humidity percent air pressurehPa Times are in UT. Measurements are made at 4 metres. The fields in this dataset are: date time(hh:mm) wind speed (knots) wind direction (degrees) air temperature (degrees celsius) relative humidity (percent) air pressure(hPa)
