SNOTEL Signal Peak, NM (Dec, 2016)

The basic SNOTEL station provides snowpack water content data via a
pressure-sensing snow pillow. It also collects data on snow depth, all-season
precipitation accumulation, and air temperature with daily maximums, minimums, and
averages. The atmospheric measurements are generally reported multiple times per day
with some reporting hourly. System performance is usually above 99%.

基础型SNOTEL测站（SNOTEL）通过压力式雪枕（pressure-sensing snow pillow）采集雪层含水量数据。该站点同时收集雪深、全季降水累积量以及包含日最高、最低与平均值的气温数据。大气监测数据通常每日多次上报，部分站点可实现逐小时上报频次。系统正常运行率通常高于99%。
