Daily temperature and stake-based mass balance observed at Glacier AX010 in 1978 and the 1990s in the Shorong region, Nepal Himalaya

Air temperature was observed at Glacier AX010 in the SHorong region, Nepal Himalaya during the monsoon seasons of 1978 and 1995, and for the period 1997-1999. This archive (obs_at.csv) contains daily mean temperature. During the same period, specific mass balance of the glacier was also observed (obs_mb.csv).
