Updated Meteorological Data, Kuparuk River and Nearby Watersheds: North Headwater (NH) station, 1996-2010.
The data files in this data set contain climate information from sites on the North Slope of Alaska in or near the Kuparuk River basin. The data was collected for a hydrologic study of rivers in the North Slope region between 1985-present. Hydro-meteorological stations were established at various lo...

Hydro-meteorological stations were established at various locations throughout the Kuparuk, but also in the Putuligayuk and Sagavanirktok watersheds. The variables collected at most stations were air temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, soil temperature, snow temperature, precipitation, snow depth, and radiation.
