Dataset Information

station_name: Hornsund
wmo_identifier: 1003.000000000000
title: Manual in-situ measurements of snow depth at the Polish Polar Station Hornsund
summary: At the Hornsund meteorological site snow depth has been measured at the same points by the Station\342\200\231s overwintering crew since August 1982. Snow depth is calculated from a mean of three snow stakes to avoid the effects of the drifting snow. Measurements are taken manualy, on a daily basis.
