Continuous meteorological observations at BEFmate automatic weather station, Spiekeroog, Germany, 2014-11 to 2017-04

Data presented here were collected between November 2014 to April 2017 within the BEFmate project (Biodiversity - Ecosystem Functioning across marine and terrestrial ecosystems; https://www.icbm.de/verbundprojekte/befmate/) of the Universities of Oldenburg and Göttingen and the Nationalparkverwaltung Niedersächsisches Wattenmeer. Experimental islands and saltmarsh control plots were created in the back barrier tidal flat and in the saltmarsh zone of Spiekeroog island. Data were measured with a local installed weatherstation near the experimental setup. The weatherstation system used is a ClimaSensor US (Adolf Thies GmbH & Co. KG, D-Göttingen). The sensors were pre-calibrated by the manufacturer. Data were recorded with the Meteo-Online (V4.5.0.20253) software and processed using MATLAB (R2012b). Data were visually checked and outliers removed. The position was derived from the intern GPS-system. Date and Time is given in UTC.
New data sets will be added from time to time.
