Abstract

Information is presented on the organization and history of the development of meteorological observations at the Institute of Monitoring of Climatic and Ecological Systems, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences (IMCES), from the 2nd category weather station of the DTI SM “Optics” (1994) to the present observations carried out at the Geophysical Observatory (GO) of IMCES, which is a stationary environmental monitoring point. A retrospective of the development of meteorological instrumentation at IMCES is described beginning from the creation of experimental samples of automated systems for operational measurement of optical and meteorological characteristics of the atmosphere (70-80s of the XX century) during testing of different laser systems to the development and creation of meteorological instruments, including automatic ultrasonic weather stations of different purpose and geographically distributed information and measuring systems based on them. A number of the weather stations are included in the State Register of Measuring Instruments.
