Yearly file describing the metological conditions on Toolik Lake adjacent to the Toolik Field Research Station (68 38'N, 149 36'W). This location is a floating platform where eddy flux measurements have been made, and should not be confused with either the Toolik Field Station Climate site, which is a land-based station, or the Toolik Lake Climate Station that is lake-based but at a different location (approximately 300 m from the eddy platform). Note that the terrestrial station has been called the "Toolik Main Climate Station", and the station on the lake is located near the main Arctic long term ecological research lake sampling site, and has also been called the Toolik Lake Main Climate Station. Measurements at the eddy climate platform described here include air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, wind direction, wind speed, radiation, and water temperature.
