Hourly meteorological data from Toolik Field Station, Alaska (1988-2024).

Weather data has been collected at Toolik Field Station (68 degrees 38'N, 149 degrees 36'W) since June 1988. The weather station located at the field station was originally installed by the Arctic Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) (ecosystems.mbl.edu/arc) and Toolik Field Station (TFS) assumed control of the station in 2007. The field station is an ideal location for maintaining long-term weather data, as it is located in a data sparse region and adds a data point along the north-south transect of the North Slope of Alaska, following along the Dalton Highway. There is year round access and a long-term pre-existing dataset. These advantages make it possible to provide quality data - an often difficult achievement in remote northern latitudes in Alaska.

自1988年6月起，研究人员便在图利克野外站（Toolik Field Station，坐标68°38'N，149°36'W）持续采集气象数据。该站点的气象观测设施最初由北极长期生态研究（Arctic Long Term Ecological Research，LTER）搭建，相关项目网址为ecosystems.mbl.edu/arc，并于2007年由图利克野外站（简称TFS）接管运营。该野外站是维持长期气象数据序列的理想选址：其所处区域为气象数据稀缺区，且沿道尔顿公路（Dalton Highway）布设，填补了阿拉斯加北坡南北样带的观测空白。该站点全年均可通行，且拥有长期留存的已有数据集。这些优势为获取高质量气象数据提供了可能——而在阿拉斯加北部偏远高纬度地区，达成这一目标往往难度极大。
