The monitoring is designed to collect, store, analyse and interpret long-term datasets for physical, chemical and biological variables, which drive or respond to environmental change. The Yr Wyddfa monitoring contributes to the national Environmental Change Network. It is one of 12 terrestrial ECN sites across the UK and is important within the context of the network because it extends its climatic and ecological coverage, as well as the geographical distribution (it's the only montane site under oceanic influence and has the highest rainfall). The ECN's objectives are to establish and maintain a network of sites from which to obtain comparable long-term datasets through the monitoring of a range of variables; to integrate and analyse these data to identify natural and man-induced environmental changes, improve understanding of the causes of change, distinguish short-term fluctuations from long-term trends, and predict future changes. NRW also carries out other monitoring at the site which contributes to a variety of national monitoring initiatives, see lineage fields of the individual metadata entries in the 'contains' field below.

Each monitoring protocol has a corresponding paper form which is filled in the field. The data is entered into an Excel spreadsheet which has background calibration graphs in order to flag any outliers within the data. These outliers can then be double checked against the paper records. Every year the spreadsheet is checked against the paper records, and each line of data within the spreadsheet is assigned a quality code which helps to flag up any problems during data collation e.g. snow in gauge. The CEH CCU also have their own QA procedures which they follow on receipt of the data.
