Hourly monitoring data of air quality and meteorology at Atmospheric Measurement and Experiment Laboratory of National Institute for Environmental Studies in Tsukuba, Japan

Continuous hourly monitoring data of air quality and meteorology at Atmospheric Measurement and Experiment Laboratory (Air Quality Research Station) of National Institute for Environmental Studies in Tsukuba, Japan from 1995 to 2022. This facility was established to evaluate the accuracy and stability of automatic measurement instruments for air quality and meteorology, to make intercomparisons, and to study interfering factors. The air quality components include sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3), methane (CH4), non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC), suspended particulate matter (SPM), and fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The meteorological elements include wind direction, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity (RH), pressure, solar radiation, ultraviolet-A radiation (UV-A), and precipitation.
