Automatic Weather Station & Gravimetry Measurements

During the last couple of weeks, we helped Konrad Steffen of Switzerland's WSL install two Automatic Weather Stations near Princess Elisabeth Antarctica. One near the airstrip to take measurements for the DROMLAN air network, and a second on the Antarctic Plateau to collect meteorolgical data used by the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL). This gallery also featurespictures of the gravimeter used by Olivier Francis within the framework of the GIANT project.
