FIXED VARIABLES: Year, Day, Time (hrmin), Date/Time (Local). For the other variables
see general details and file description for each station
RESEARCH LOCATION: Various locations around Canada Glacier
METHODS: See general details and file description for each station for details on the methods.
TIMING: 1994/95 to 1998/99 seasons
