Ground based in situ observations of aws at Mt. Kenya (KE0001G)

Abstract:
Ground based in situ observations of aws at Mt. Kenya (KE0001G). These measurements are gathered as a part of the following projects sel_HTAP, GAW-WDCGG-node and they are stored in the EBAS database (http://ebas.nilu.no/). Parameters measured are: pressure in met (air_pressure), relative_humidity in met (relative_humidity), temperature in met (air_temperature), wind_direction in met (wind_from_direction), wind_speed in met (wind_speed)
