Meteorological Observations at Denali Pass Automatic Weather Station, Alaska, USA,1990-2007

The station was installed by a team of climbers from the Japanese Alpine Club (JAC) and was operational intermittently between 1990 and 2007, measuring primarily air temperature and wind speed for continuous periods of up to several months. The AWS was donated to the International Arctic Research Center (IARC) at the University of Fairbanks Alaska in 1999 and IARC personnel carried out station maintenance together with JAC members in later years of operations.

The data provided here represents a cleaned data set extracted from the original data logger files.
