CFI Climate Sentinels Hotplate Precipitation Gauge data

This dataset includes hotplate precipitation gauge data from 4 different sites sitting in the St. Lawrence River Valley. The hotplate data were obtained by the K63 Hotplate Total Precipitation Gauge. The instruments belonged to Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) and McGill University. UQAM has one hotplate permanently installed on the rooftop of the President-Kennedy building, in downtown Montreal. Another hotplate was temporarily deployed by the UQAM team in the instrument yard of UQTR as part of the WINTRE-MIX field campaign. McGill’s instruments are permanently installed in the instrument yards of Gault and Arboretum.
