This work is funded by several agencies and supported by numerous federal, state, municipal, and local partners. See each individual station for specific acknowledgments. The views and conclusions contained in this document are those of the authors and should not be interpreted as representing the opinions or policies of the U.S. Geological Survey. Mention of trade names or commercial products does not constitute their endorsement by the U.S. Geological Survey. Ronnie Daanen played an instrumental role in collaborating on the project vision and leading the installation of many of the initial stations. In July 2023, Ronnie, along with colleagues Justin Germann and Tori Moore, and pilot Tony Higdon, tragically passed away in a helicopter crash while conducting fieldwork in support of hydrometeorological monitoring on the North Slope. This publication is released posthumously in their memory.
This dataset was developed to support long-term hydrometeorological monitoring through the deployment and maintenance of weather stations in Alaska's data-scarce regions and under-observed elevations. Funded externally and supported by diverse partnerships, the network aims to enhance the spatial and temporal coverage of weather and climate observations. Continuous updates to the database incorporate new and published information, contributing to improved environmental analysis and decision-making.
