1 A preliminary global survey of high elevation mountain stations and remarks on recent climatic changes at high altitudes in Asia What is a mountain station? Global HE station distribution PET as an estimator of evaporative conditions remarks on HE climate change in Asia The climatlas Project
2 Global HE station distribution Introductory remarks + Climate data from mountain regions are required in all scientific areas + HE stations provide data from atmospheric regions otherwise only accessible by sounding balloons - Data are often not published or are not easily accessible - Basic climatic information is available for temperature and precipitation but is scant for evaporation or water balance - A large proportion of HE stations have been operated only for a short time - No consistent global data base available, particularly no data about long-term trends - International programs collecting HE climate data (e.g. GLORIA, SHARE) appear to be little coordinated Climate data are taken by very different institutions: meteorology / hydrology / botany / forest or agricultural services but also: astronomy / aeronomy
3 MOUNTAIN STATION CHARACTERISTICS Elevation alone is not a suitable criterion Mt. Washington 1941 m Brocken 1142 m
4 MOUNTAIN STATION CHARACTERISTICS exposure is as important as elevation Dörrbecker 2007 UfS 2007 UfS 2007

21 The climatlas project A tool for: data a exploration o data presentation communication education and ist is NOT another data base
22 The ideas behind climatlas unrestricted access over the Internet data sources: FAOCLIM2 publications data contributed by researchers and organisations Internet in principle all kind of climate data can be integrated (e.g. incomplete / short duration) incorporation of small scale stations networks of research programs presentation of data as graphs (climate diagrams, trends) integration of evapotranspiration/sublimation data link to contributing researcher / institute
23 climatlas
24 climatlas How can you contribute? provide information on HE stations (metadata) meteorological measurements (long-term means or time series) data to estimate evapotranspiration/sublimation (temperature, solar radiation, humidity and wind speed) give your ideas and criticism
