This data publication contains hourly meteorological tower data collected from 1991-2005 at the NADP WY00 site at the Glacier Lakes Ecosystem Experiments Site (GLEES), in the Snowy Range near Centennial, Wyoming. The GLEES, a 600 hectare research watershed at 3200-3400 meters elevation in the Snowy Range of southeastern Wyoming, was established in 1987 to examine the effects of atmospheric deposition on alpine and subalpine ecosystems. The site is not in a designated wilderness area, but was selected for research because it closely replicates conditions in federally designated Class I wilderness. Additional information about the Glacier Lakes Ecosystem Experiments Site can be found at https://www.fs.fed.us/rmrs/experimental-forests-and-ranges/glees-glacier-lakes-ecosystem-experiments-site.
