An air temperature and storage precipitation gage, operated at a windy site at an altitude of 990 meters in the Wolverine Glacier basin from May 1967 to the present, provides long-term climate data near the average annual snowline in the glacierized mountains of south-central Alaska. To assure high quality information, data reduction techniques include corrections for changes in recorder paper size, instrument response to temperature, and density of self-mixing antifreeze. Daily precipitation catches and mean temperatures from the gage through September 1988 are presented in appendixes. To provide a continuous time series of data at monthly resolution, gaps in the record were estimated using climatological records from Seward, Alaska. The precipitation catch was significantly less than the actual precipitation because of adverse effects of wind, despite orifice shielding. This and some sticking of snow in the gage orifice indicate that the relation between the precipitation catch and the true precipitation in the basin is complex. An analysis of published streamflow observations during a 10-year period indicates that precipitation averaged over the basin is about three times greater than the gage catch. Characteristics of the precipitation record, such as splash events, which are easily discernible on the analog chart and which could lead to errors if not identified, are discussed. Mean annual air temperature at the Wolverine Glacier climatological station was -1.5°C (degree Celsius), and monthly mean temperatures were below 0°C about 60 percent of the time. Mean monthly temperatures ranged from -7.7°C in January to +7.2°C in July and August. Mean annual precipitation for the basin was 3.3 meters, but the average annual gage catch was 1.10 meters. Monthly average precipitation gage catch ranged from 39 millimeters in June to 154 millimeters in September. Monthly precipitation correlates positively with air temperature in winter, but negatively in summer.
