Meteorological measurements
From September 2007 until August 2010, an automatic weather station (AWS) has been operating at 650 m a.s.l. in the ablation area of Langfjordjøkelen (Fig. 12-2), as a contribution to the International Polar Year (Glaciodyn). The station (Fig. 12-6) was owned and maintained by the Institute for Mari...
