Abstract
Abstract. Since 2014, 11 tall meteorological masts have been erected in
coastal areas of mid-Norway in order to provide observational data for a
detailed description of the wind conditions at several potential fjord
crossing sites. The planned fjord crossings are part of the Norwegian Public
Roads Administration (NPRA) Coastal Highway E39 project. The meteorological
masts are 50–100 m high and located in complex terrain near the shoreline
in Halsafjorden, Julsundet and Storfjorden in the Møre og Romsdal county
of Norway. Observations of the three-dimensional wind vector are made at 2–4
levels of each mast with a temporal frequency of 10 Hz. The dataset is
corroborated with observed profiles of temperature at two masts, as well as
observations of precipitation, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity and
dew point at one site. The first masts were erected in 2014, and the
measurement campaign will continue until at least 2024. The current paper
describes the observational setup, and observations of key atmospheric
parameters are presented and put in context with observations and
climatological data from a nearby reference weather station. The 10 min
and 10 Hz wind data, as well as other meteorological parameters, are publicly
available through the Arctic Data Centre (https://doi.org/10.21343/z9n1-qw63; Furevik et
al., 2019).
