Raw (Level 1) measurements from the 10-meter (m) meteorological and flux tower (TOWER) deployed 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. At times, measurements from a second meteorological mast (MAST) located nearby are also included in the data set. The collective TOWER systems measured many parameters of the surface energy budget, surface 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. The measurements are included in two netCDF files per day. The "slow" files are for 1-sec samples of the measured variables, including near-surface meteorology, surface temperature, surface height change, net surface ...
