Abstract:
Tellurometer readings were taken over a series of sites in Enderby Land in 1976, and then remeasured in 1978. Temperature, barometric pressure and relative humidity readings were also taken at most sites when the measurements were made.
These data are archived in physical form at the Australian Antarctic Division.
Quality
Each parameter is assigned a data quality flag as defined below:
Flag 1: Error free Flag 2: Dubious. Non-specific errors Flag 3: Known errors exist that can be fixed Flag 4: Known errors exist that cannot be fixed Flag 5: No ... data - not observed Flag 6: Data in analog format only
