Meteorological and Hydrographic Data, Kuparuk River Watershed View Catalog Page Entry ID
ARCSS015
Summary
The data files in this data set contain climate and hydrographic information from sites on the North Slope of Alaska from 1985 to 2001. The variables collected were temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, soil heat flux and temperature, snow temperature, precipitation, snow pack water equivalent, and Imnavait Creek discharge rates (meters cubed per second).
