SNOTEL Rice Park, NM (Oct, 2016)

The basic SNOTEL station provides snowpack water content data via a pressure-sensing snow pillow. It also collects data on snow depth, all-season precipitation accumulation, and air temperature with daily maximums, minimums, and averages. The atmospheric measurements are generally reported multiple times per day with some reporting hourly. System performance is usually above 99%.基础型SNOTEL站（Snow Telemetry Station）通过压力式雪枕采集雪层含水量数据。该站点同时采集雪深、全季节降水累积量以及日最高、最低和平均气温相关数据。此类大气观测数据通常每日多次上报，部分站点支持逐小时更新上报。系统可用率通常可达99%以上。
