Report on atmospheric science observations at Ny-Alesund, Svalbard (Report)
Observations of atmospheric variables at Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard were started in 1991 at the Rabben observation station, in order to increase our understanding of global atmospheric change in the Arctic. The measured atmospheric components are the variations of greenhouse gases, clouds, precipitation a...
