Meteorological data for the Hawkesbury Forest Experimental Research site, Richmond

This dataset includes time series data from the Weather Station, a metrological station situated in the Yarramundi Paddock of the University of Western Sydney off Southee Road, Richmond, NSW. The data were collected at 15 or 5 minute intervals. Rainfall (mm), soil temperature (C), and soil moisture (volumetric) data were collected at 15 minutes interval. Photosynthetically Active Photon Flux Density (umol m-2 s-1), air temperature (C), relative Humidity (%), windspeed (m/s) average and maximum, winddirection (degrees), net shortwave radiation (W/m2), net longwave radiation (W/m2), net radiation (W/m2), and leaf wetness (minutes during interval) data were collected at 5 minutes interval. The data is used in correlation with the Rainout Shelters environmental sensors and the Hawkesbury Forest Experiment.
