Dataset
BAS Meteorological Observations data near to Simpson platform during the CHABLIS Campaign (2004-2005)
Abstract
Chemistry of the Antarctic Boundary Layer and the Interface with Snow (CHABLIS) is a Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and Antarctic Funding Initiative (AFI) funded project, aimed at studying the chemistry of the Antarctic Boundary Layer in greater detail, and for a longer duration, than has previously been attempted.
Field measurements were carried out at the British Antarctic Survey station, Halley, at the Clean Air Sector Laboratory (CASLab). Year-round measurements began in February 2004, and a summer campaign focussing on oxidants ran during January/February 2005, after which CHABLIS fieldwork ended. This dataset contains full met data set taken from mast near to Simpson platform at Halley, cloud data from MOMU observer's log at Halley, and snow accumulation at Halley, for the period February 2004 to February 2005. Access to this dataset is now public.
