Meteorological data collected from the Chamberlain Glacier, Lake Peters, and McCall Glacier in the Brooks Range, Alaska, 1957-1971

Data from three International Geophysical Year (IGY) (1957-1958) expeditions and one International Hydrological Decade National Science Foundation project (1969-1972) to the eastern Alaska North Slope have been rescued and made available in digital form: Chamberlain Glacier, Lake Peters, and McCall Glacier. Comparisons between these sites and United States and Canadian Weather Service stations within 500 kilometers (km) of McCall Glacier were conducted to determine the broad temperature climatology of the region. McCall Glacier is generally a swing site, and the climatology of the region often was linked most closely to the Beaufort Sea coast, though on some occasions, was more closely related to the Mackenzie River Delta and on other occasions, to the Interior. This data set is a series of CSV data files containing daily meteorological conditions collected annually from approximately April to August.
