Abstract:
A Mobile - Automatic Weather Station (M-AWS) was designed to record a set of ground measurements, on board a zero-emissions polar vehicle. The M-AWS measured temperature and relative humidity in a transect of 2538 km from the plateau near the Novolazárevskaya station to the Dome Fuji (altitude 3810 m. asl) over the Eastern Antarctic plateau during the Year of Polar Prediction Southern Hemisphere Special Observing Period (YOPP-SH SOP).
