This is a collection of continuous meteorological observations at Ny-Ålesund, obtained from a meteorological mast located at 11.9222° E, 78.9266° N on the observation field in the vicinity of the AWIPEV Atmosphere Observatory. Air temperature is measured by shaded and ventilated PT100 sensors at 2 m and 10 m height, and on the same levels wind speed and direction is retrieved using the Combined Wind Sensor Classic by Thies Clima. Two independent humidity sensors are detecting relative humidity at 2 m height, while station pressure is given from a sensor installed about 10m towards North. All data are provided in high temporal resolution as average over 1 minute, respectively. The data set collection will be updated regularly by new data.
