Surface meteorological data from Kirkwood Island off the Antarctic Peninsula from the Autonomous Weather station from 2001-2003 (SOGLOBEC project) (NCEI Accession 0278275)

This dataset contains meteorological data collected at Autonomous Weather station during deployment Kirkwood_Island at Southern Ocean from 2001-05-22 to 2003-04-30. These data include air temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, and wind_speed. The instruments used to collect these data include Automated Weather Station. These data were collected by Dr Richard Limeburner and Dr Robert C Beardsley of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the "U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean (SOGLOBEC)" project and "U.S. GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-02-28.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

Surface met. data from Kirkwood Island

Dataset Description:
SO GLOBEC Moored Array, Drifter, and Float Component

PIs: Bob Beardsley, Dick Limeburner, Breck Owen

Surface meteorological data collected at Kirkwood Island

Location 68.34S - 69.01W, elev 30m (source http://amrc.ssec.wisc.edu/aws/)

Fieldname descriptions

Date of submission: 12/07/04

Source File: SOG_aws_rawNEW2.mat (from Mike Caruso)

Processing by Beardsley group:
Edit barometric pressure, air temp., relative humidity, and wind speed by:
(a) removing values outside bounds,
(b) convert wind speed and direction (met convention) into east and north wind components u,v (ocean convention),
(c) removing wild points, (csub1) average resulting edited data in 1 hr time bins to create uniform hourly time series,
(d) truncating each variable into common time base,
(e) compute wind stress, sensible heat flux and latent heat flux using COARE26, with SST set to 0 and sensor height 12 m).
Save times tuv0 when raw wind speed = 0 (prop stuck due to icing, etc). [edit_aws_rawD.m, awsintA.m, coare26v.m] (not served)
