SPLASH Field Study; NOAA GML Surface Radiation Budget and Near-Surface Meteorology Data at Kettle Ponds and Brush Creek, Colorado (NCEI Accession 0302673)
From fall 2021 through summer 2023, NOAA and research partners conducted a field study (SPLASH - the Study of Precipitation, the Lower Atmosphere and Surface for Hydrometeorology). This field study established a state-of-the-art observing network in the East River watershed of the Colorado mountains with a goal of advancing weather and water prediction capabilities in areas with complex terrain. The ultimate goal of this project is improved prediction of weather and water in the Colorado mountains and beyond to inform societal preparedness and response. SPLASH was complemented by a concurrent Surface Atmosphere Integrated Field Laboratory (SAIL) field campaign led by the Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility.
This dataset contains Surface Energy Balance data collected at the Kettle Ponds (CKP) and Brush Creek (CBC), Colorado sites from October 2021 through August 2023. The data are provided in daily files of one minute data in ASCII text format.
