Automatic weather station data from AWS5 collected during 2016 at the Greenland ice sheet along the K-transect, West-Greenland

The timeseries constitutes two different types of AWS. The first is a standard type modular AWS described extensively in https://doi.org/10.1080/15230430.2017.1420954.
The second type (operational from Aug2016 at AWS5, Aug2015 at AWS6, Aug2014 at AWS9, Aug2014 at AWS10) is a very compact IMAU design AWS consisting of one integrated module containing the datalogger, energy system and multiple sensors. In addition to the datalogger unit there are also 2 independent sensors dedicated to wind speed/direction and radiation (a Young prop/vane, CNR4 radiation sensor). All three units are mounted 3 to 4m above the surface at one mast boom. […]

该时序数据集包含两种不同类型的自动气象站（AWS）。第一种为标准型模块化自动气象站，相关细节已在https://doi.org/10.1080/15230430.2017.1420954 中进行了详尽阐述。
第二种为采用紧凑型IMAU设计的自动气象站，该类设备的启用时序为：AWS5站点2016年8月、AWS6站点2015年8月、AWS9与AWS10站点均为2014年8月，其核心为集成了数据采集器、能源系统与多类传感器的一体化模块。除数据采集器单元外，该类设备还配备2台独立传感器，分别用于风速/风向与辐射监测，具体为Young螺旋桨式风速风向传感器与CNR4净辐射传感器。三台设备均安装于同一桅杆悬臂上，距地表高度为3至4米。[…]
