Description
Summary:Final, processed (Level 3) measurements and derived parameters from a collection of instruments at the Met City location within the Central Observatory of the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition drifting with the central Arctic sea ice from October 2019 through September 2020. Measurements are from a 10-meter meteorological and flux tower, a radiation suite (operated by the DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program), and at times also a meteorological mast located nearby. The collective MET CITY systems measured many parameters of the surface energy budget, air-ice momentum flux, near-surface meteorology, and local position. Measurements of meteorology and high-resolution 3-dimensional winds were observed at nominal heights of 2-, 6-, and 10-m, with some measurements at either 30- or 23-m when the mast was also operational. Measurements of upwelling broadband radiation were made at a nominal height of 3 m, while measurements of downwelling broadband ...
