Atmospheric electricity observations by Reinhold Reiter around Garmisch-Partenkirchen

R. Giles Harrison and Kristian Schlegel

Abstract. Atmospheric electricity measurements were made at several sites close to Garmisch-Partenkirchen during four decades from 1950 to 1990 by Dr Reinhold Reiter, together with other environmental measurements. The quantities determined include the atmospheric potential gradient, the vertical current and the ion concentrations, and observations made at the Mount Wank site (1780 m, 47° 30' N, 11° 09' E) from 1st August 1972 to 31st December 1983 are available in digital form.

Short summary
Environmental measurements were undertaken around Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the Bavarian Alps for four decades, by Dr Reinhold Reiter (1920–1998). This included measurement sites on the Zugspitze and Wank mountains, and the use of an instrumented cable car travelling between Lake Eibsee and the Zugspitze summit. The Mount Wank site operated between 1st August 1972 to 31st December 1983, for which the hourly data values – including atmospheric electricity quantities – have been recovered.
