Changri Nup meteorological parameters

Within the Ev-K2-CNR Project SHARE on February 2010 an Automatic Weather Station (AWS) has been installed on the debris-free surface of the Changri Nup Glacier (Nepal, Himalayas) at 5,700 m asl.

The AWS is acquiring meteorological data and energy fluxes (incoming and outgoing) at the glacier surface.
