Hourly meteorological data from Toolik Field Station, Alaska (1988-2024).

Weather data has been collected at Toolik Field Station (68 degrees 38'N, 149 degrees 36'W) since June 1988. The weather station located at the field station was originally installed by the Arctic Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) (ecosystems.mbl.edu/arc) and Toolik Field Station (TFS) assumed control of the station in 2007. The field station is an ideal location for maintaining long-term weather data, as it is located in a data sparse region and adds a data point along the north-south transect of the North Slope of Alaska, following along the Dalton Highway. There is year round access and a long-term pre-existing dataset. These advantages make it possible to provide quality data - an often difficult achievement in remote northern latitudes in Alaska.

自1988年6月起，科研团队便在图利克野外站（Toolik Field Station，坐标68°38'N，149°36'W）启动气象数据采集工作。该站点的气象监测设施最初由北极长期生态研究（Arctic Long Term Ecological Research，LTER）（ecosystems.mbl.edu/arc）搭建，并于2007年由图利克野外站（Toolik Field Station，简称TFS）接管运维。该站点是开展长期气象数据监测与留存的理想选址：其所处区域属于气象数据稀缺地带，且沿阿拉斯加北坡的南北断面布设了监测点位，同时毗邻道尔顿公路（Dalton Highway）。该站点全年通行无阻，且拥有长期积累的历史数据集。上述优势使其能够输出高质量的气象数据——而在阿拉斯加北部偏远高纬度区域，获取优质监测数据往往是一项极具挑战的任务。
