Climate station data from the Grands-Jardins park in Charlevoix, Quebec, Canada

Data are from the Grands-Jardins park in Charlevoix, Quebec, Canada. It contains data from air and ground temperatures, wind speed and direction and the average snow height. The available datasets cover the period from 2004-2019. For each site, the number of measured variables differs. For ground temperature, the depth ranges are as follows: Grands-Jardins, Pessière Lichens (GRANJAR): 2-15 cm. Grands-Jardins, Lac des Cygnes (LACYGNE): 5-260 cm. Data are available as: (1) recorded data; (2) daily averages; (3) monthly averages; and (4) yearly averages.
