For the "master" copy of the dataset, see the metadata record at: https://data.aad.gov.au/metadata/records/SIPEX_II_Underway_Snowfall Matlab file containing raw data snowfall data collected aboard the RV Aurora Australis using Campbell Scientific dataloggers. Two Wenglor brand YHO3NCT8 photoelectric sensors were mounted on the forward railing of the ship's "monkey deck". The beam heights of the sensors were 18cm above the upper railing, oriented parallel to the railing (perpendicular to the long-axis of the ship), approximately 6m apart. The port sensor was purchased in 2012, from a batch of these sensors manufactured in a new Eastern European factory while the starboard sensor came from a lot purchased in 2007, manufactured in Wenglor's German factory and extensively tested for use in snow. Pulse counts measured by the port sensor were consistently lower in magnitude than those recorded during the same interval by the starboard sensor. It is not currently clear whether this was due to the ship's tendency to be oriented with the wind to starboard, or whether this is due to differences in instrument characteristics. Data recorded between 17/9/2012 and 26/10/2012 was logged by a CR10x datalogger. Data recorded after 26/10/2012 was logged by a CR1000 datalogger.

Data contained in these structures includes the following variables, with units: Datenm: matlab 'datenumber'. Change to conventional format using the "datevec()" command Port: beam interruptions per 10s interval, port-side sensor Stbd: beam interruptions per 10s interval, starboard-side sensor Ptemp: temperature of a thermistor mounted beneath the datalogger's wiring panel. The datalogger was contained in a fiberglass box, strapped into the starboard side observation shelter on the monkey deck. Volt: voltage received and transmitted by the datalogger. Power came from a 12v 1Ah converter plugged into the ship's power supply.
