LTAR Great Basin Wyoming Big Sage Brush Meteorological Station, Reynolds Creek Experimental Watershed

Near-real time weather records collected at the Wyoming Big sagebrush meteorological site of the Great Basin LTAR. The station data is composited from a meteorological station and a nearby Eddy Covariance station. This site is also the primary meteorological station for the Nancy Gulch sub-watershed of the Reynolds Creek Experimental Watershed and the Wyoming Big sagebrush vegetation zone of the Reynolds Creek Critical Zone Observatory. The site includes precipitation, incoming solar radiation, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, snow depth, soil moisture, soil temperature. The records have had preliminary quality assurance filters applied and are considered raw field measurements.

Statement

Measurements include air temperature and humidity, shortwave (solar) irradiance, longwave (thermal) radiation, wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, and rainfall. Profiles of soil moisture and temperature are planned. The LTAR Meteorology Repository at the National Agricultural Library receives the data hourly, and it is available to the public in near-real time, nominally within 15 minutes past the hour for the prior hour’s data.
