Automatic weather station data from AWS5 collected during 2008 at the Greenland ice sheet along the K-transect, West-Greenland@en

The timeseries constitutes two different types of AWS. The first is a standard type modular AWS described extensively in https://doi.org/10.1080/15230430.2017.1420954.
The second type (operational from Aug2016 at AWS5, Aug2015 at AWS6, Aug2014 at AWS9, Aug2014 at AWS10) is a very compact IMAU design AWS consisting of one integrated module containing the datalogger, energy system and multiple sensors. In addition to the datalogger unit there are also 2 independent sensors dedicated to wind speed/direction and radiation (a Young prop/vane, CNR4 radiation sensor). All three units are mounted 3 to 4m above the surface at one mast boom. […]

本时间序列数据集包含两类不同的自动气象站（AWS）。第一类为标准型模块化自动气象站，相关技术细节已在https://doi.org/10.1080/15230430.2017.1420954 中进行了全面阐述。
第二类为采用紧凑型IMAU设计的自动气象站，其各站点的业务投运时间分别为：AWS5于2016年8月、AWS6于2015年8月、AWS9与AWS10均于2014年8月。该类站体由集成了数据记录仪、能源系统及多类传感器的一体化模块组成。除数据记录仪单元外，还配备了2台独立传感器，分别用于风速/风向与辐射量测量：其一为Young螺旋桨式风向风速传感器，其二为CNR4辐射传感器。三台设备均安装于同一桅杆吊臂上，距地表高度为3至4米。[…]
