Site Description
The Cimel sunphotometer is operated at the Nepal Climate Observatory at Pyramid (NCO-P ), at 5079 m asl, in the Khumbu valley, Nepal, close to the Pyramid International Laboratory. This valley is the climbers' approach path to Mt. Everest. The monitoring station was implemented in early 2006 and is run in the framework of a collaboration between CNR-ISAC Institute and EvK2-CNR Organization. The NCO-P is located near the Ev-K2-CNR Pyramid International Laboratory. This Himalayan station represents an ideal place for studying the impact of regional and long-range air mass transport on remote atmospheres. Since July 2010 NCO-P is a Global Atmospheric Watch (GAW) Global Station.
