Effect of replacing the surface meteorological observation system at Syowa Station on the homogeneity of data
The surface meteorological observation system was replaced over two years, 1997 and 1998, at Syowa Station in Antarctica. The new system has been formally operated since February 1st 1999. Operation of the old system was continued for one year afterward in order to compare data from both systems. Th...
