DISCHMEX - Meteorological measurements

DOI

Meteorological measurements recorded in the Dischma valley from 2014-2016. In 2014 and 2015 we used 11 mobile weather stations from sensorscope to record meteorological parameter in the upper Dischma valley in the closer surroundings of the Gletschboden area. The meteorological stations are eqiupped with at least air temperature/humidity, wind velocity and wind direction sensors. Some stations are additionally equipped with precipitation, shortwave radiation and snow surface temperature sensors.
Three transects were installed at different aspects and were equipped with air temperature/humidity and wind sensors. Transect 1 (stations 2-4) provides meteorological Information on an east-north-east facing slope at elevations ranging between 2100 m and 2500 m. Transect 2 (stations 5-7) provides meteorological Information on a south-west slope and transect 3 (stations 8-10) on a north-west slope. Station 1 is fully equipped with meteorological sensors (temperature/humidity, wind, IR, up and downwand shortwave radiation and precipitation). In 2016, mobile stations from sensorscope were replaced with six permanent meteorological stations. Meteorological stations 1-3 are equipped with an air temperature/humidity sensor, two wind speed sensors, a wind direction sensor and an incoming and outgoing shortwave radiation sensor. Stations 4 and 6 are equipped with an air temperature/humidity sensor and a wind speed/direction sensor. Station 5 is a equipped with an air temperature/humidity sensor, a wind speed/direction sensor, a snow surface temperature sensor, an incoming and outgoing shortwave radiation sensor and an incoming longwave radiation sensor.
