  • These data provide meteorological information measured at the GUMP research station on the north shore of Moorea island, French Polynesia. Data collection began in August 2006 and include air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, solar radiation, atmospheric pressure, and integrated rainfall. All sensors are sampled every 5 minutes. Post-processing of these data is limited to some unit conversion and exclusion of corrupted data records. Aggregate data are provided in daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly time bins.

    ClimDB data for station GUMPM were derived from the same data source.

    This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation under Grant No. OCE 22-24354 (and earlier awards) as well as a generous gift from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. Research was completed under permits issued by the French Polynesian Government (Délégation à la Recherche) and the Haut-commissariat de la République en Polynésie Francaise (DTRT) (Protocole d'Accueil 2005-2024). This work represents a contribution of the Moorea Coral Reef (MCR) LTER Site.
