Askole Meteorological sensors

A new embedded-transportable monitoring system (SHARE-BOX), specifically designed to perform atmospheric observations in remote regions, has been deployed at Askole from 20th August to 10th November 2012.

The system was equipped with an automated weather station (Vaisala WXT520).

Lineage

The embedded station used during the Askole field campaign has been tested during a 10-day period at the Monte Cimone WMO/GAW Global Station (CMN; 44.10N, 10.70E; 2165 m a.s.l.), in January 2011.

Meteorological data have been compared with observations from the CMN wetaher station.

The VAISALA WXT520 meteorological unit, measured temperature, pressure, relative humidity, rain, wind intensity and direction.

The wind data measurements utilise three equally spaced ultrasonic transducers that determine the wind speed and direction from the time it takes for ultrasound to travel from one transducer to the two others. The precipitation is measured with a piezoelectrical sensor that detects the impact of individual raindrops and thus infers the accumulated rainfall. For the pressure, temperature and humidity measurements, separate sensors employing high precision RC oscillators are used.
