The Automatic Weather Station (AWS ) takes hourly measurements of seven standard parameters: temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind speed and direction, global radiation, total precipitation. In the Khumbu Valley, in the area of Sagarmatha National Park, a network of 6 Automatic Weather Stations (AWSs) has been installed over the past 10 years. The meteorological stations are located in Lukla (2,660 m a.s.l.), Namche (3,570 m a.s.l.) Pheriche (4,260 m a.s.l.) and Lobuche, nearby the Pyramid Laboratory-Observatory (5,050 m a.s.l.). The network takes hourly measurements of seven standard parameters: temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind speed and direction, global radiation, total precipitation.

At an AWS, the instrument measurements are read out or received by a central data-acquisition unit. The AWS guarantee continuous measurements of air temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, global solar radiation, UVA radiation, wind speed and direction. The technologically advanced AWS instrumentation is developed by the Italian manufacturer LSI-Lastem. The AWS is equipped with this sensors: - Station pressure 2m CX115P Lsi-Lastem (Italy) - Air Temperature 2m DMA570 Lsi-Lastem (Italy)) - Dew point - (2 m derived) - Relative humidity 2 m DMA570 Lsi-Lastem (Italy) - Specific humidity (2 m derived) - Wind speed 5m DNA022 Lsi-Lastem (Italy) - Wind direction 5m DNA022 Lsi-Lastem (Italy) - U wind component (derived) (5 m) - V wind component (derived) (5 m) - Precipitation - 1.5m DQA035 Lsi-Lastem (Italy) - Incoming shortwave radiation – 2 m CM3 Kipp&Zonen (The Netherlands) No conditions apply
