The basic meteorological data are measured and recorded simultaneously by a multi-sensor instrument the Vaisala WXT520 multiparameter weather transmitter. The Meteorological parameters measured are: - air temperature unit[deg C], - Atmospheric pressure[hPa], - Relative humidity[%], - Wind speed[m/s] and direction[deg], - Precipitation[mm].

The Pheriche Station is equipped with a rain gauge which is a sensor to measure rain quantity.
Pheriche station is equipped with sensor for measuring global solar radiation. The CM6B is a first class pyranometer as defined by the World Meteorological Organization. It is suitable for the measurement of solar irradiance on a plane surface (W/m2). The sensor ( CM6B Pyranometer) takes hourly measurements of global radiation.

The following compounds are currently observed and analysed : - Halons H-1301, H-1211 - CFCs: CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC-113, CFC-114, CFC-115 - HCFCs: HCFC-22, HCFC-141b, HCFC-142b, HCFC-124 - CH3Cl, CH3Br, CH3I, CH2Cl2, CHCl3, CH3CCl3,CCl4, TCE, PCE - HFCs:HFC-134a, HFC-152a, HFC-125
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.
