North Pole Weather Data from 2008 Deployment

Weather & radiation data plot
Map of station drift

Weather & radiation plot: This plot presents incoming short-wave solar radiation measured by one of the radiometer buoys, along with air temperature, air pressure, and winds measured by the meteorological station.

Buoys ceased to function on Nov. 13, 2008.
