AWS and AMRC Data ArchiveThe Automatic Weather Stations' Project and the Antarctic Meteorological Research Center archive many forms of meteorological data available for use by the scientific community and the public, free of charge. Users of the data are asked only to acknowledge the AWS or AMRC project appropriately, for anything produced or published that uses the data. Much of the AWS's and AMRC's data is provided online - via ftp or web, but some data has yet to be added to the Web, so feel free to ask for other types of data not listed below. To request data from the AWS project or the AMRC, please contact us at amrc@ssec.wisc.edu. Ship ReportsWe have observations from three ships near Antarctica, the R/V Polar Duke, the R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer, and the R/V Laurence M. Gould. Data from 23 August 1993 are available via ftp and the files are updated with the most recent observations every 7-10 days as we receive the information. The AMRC has been archiving general ship and buoy observational data for the Antarctic and surrounding regions since 2 December 1998.
