Measurements of diurnal variations of meteorological parameters and subsurface water temperature in Lake Kinneret, Israel, during the period (Sept. 6 – 20, 2015)

The datasets include in-situ 10-minute measurements of subsurface water temperature taken at a depth of 20 cm, at a site A (32.82 oN; 35.60 oE) located near the center of Lake Kinneret, during the period (Sept. 6 – 20, 2015). Lake Kinneret is located in Israel. The Campbell 107-L temperature probe was used (specifications are available online at https://www.campbellsci.asia/107-l ). The datasets also include meteorological measurements taken at the same site, such as air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, upwelling and downwelling longwave (4.5 - 42 µm) radiation. The above meteorological measurements were taken at a height of 2 - 3 m above the lake surface. Measurements at the site A are associated with the Kinneret Limnological Laboratory, Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research (https://www.ocean.org.il/kinneret-limnological-laboratory-center/ ).

Data format: xlsx file. The file includes water temperature (WT, oC), wind speed (WS, m/s), air temperature (Tair, oC), relative humidity (RH, %), upwelling longwave radiation (Upwelling LW, W/m2) and downwelling longwave radiation (Downwelling LW, W/m2).
