Long-Term Agricultural Research (LTAR) network - Meteorological Station - Rock Springs - Upper Chesapeake Bay
The USDA-ARS Pasture Systems and Watershed Management Research Unit established a meteorological station in 2015 as part of the Upper Chesapeake Bay (UCB) site in the Long-Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) network (est. 2012). Measurements include air temperature and humidity, shortwave (solar) irradiance, longwave (thermal) radiation, wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, and rainfall. Data are recorded at 15-minute intervals. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: GeoData catalog record.
