Meteorology and soil moisture data collected at multiple frequencies from the Cross-scale Interactions Study (CSIS) Block-14 site automated monitoring stations: Jornada Basin LTER, 2013 - ongoing

This dataset contains summary data collected at the Jornada Basin LTER program's Cross Scale Interactions Study (CSIS) Block-14 site automated weather station and associated soil substation at several temporal scales. Precipitation data are collected at 1-second frequency during rain events, air temperature and wind are summarized every 5-minutes, and all aboveground sensors are summarized at 30-minute, hourly and daily frequencies. Soil moisture is measured at a 30-minute frequency and summarized daily. Observed values include average/maximum/minimum air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed; average wind direction; soil moisture, temperature and conductivity. Aboveground sensors are measured and calculated based on 1-second scan rate. Soil moisture is measured every 30-minutes near the weather station and approximately 30-meters distance at a nearby substation. Wind speed is measured at 37cm, 75 cm, 150 cm, and 300 cm, wind direction at approximately 3m, and air temperature and relative humidity at approximately 2.5m. Soil sensors are installed at 10, 20 and 30cm depths.
