| caption | MV Polarfront (Norwegian Meteorological Institute, Station M) reports a full range of hourly weather observations from 66° N, 02° E, just outside the Arctic Circle in the Norwegian Sea. Automatic buoys have superceded just about all other fully crewed weather ships, but Station M has a special role as an important radiosonde launch and track station and is a major platform for gathering data for climate research. |
