Description
The following geophysical field data (collected between October 21 and November 9, 2017) at Trakarding-Trambau Glacier system in Nepal Himalaya is provided in this dataset:
(1) Hourly air-temperature measured at four sites (AWS, T1, T2 and T3). Units are degrees Celcius. Local time.
[file name] Hourly_Air_temperature_AWS_T1_T2_T3_degC.csv
(2) Hourly wind speed measured at the AWS site. Units are meters per second. Local time.
[file name] Hourly_Wind_speed_AWS_MperS.csv
The aforementioned stations had the following dGPS-derived coordinates:
{Station, lat [deg], lon [deg], elevation [m] }
AWS, 27.84356265, 86.4867231, 4805.582206
T1, 27.84575824, 86.49189978, 4591.4429
