WegenerNet climate station network Level 2 data

This dataset contains the latest reprocessed data record (version 7.1) over 2007 to 2021 from the WegenerNet climate station networks, which since 2007 provide measurements with very high spatial and temporal resolution of hydrometeorological variables for two regions in the state of Styria, southeastern Austria: 1) The WegenerNet Feldbach Region, located in the Alpine forelands of southeastern Styria, which extents over an area of about 22 km x 16 km and comprises 156 meteorological stations placed on a tightly spaced grid, with an average spatial density of one station per ~2 km² and a temporal sampling of 5 min. 2) The WegenerNet Johnsbachtal, which is a smaller "sister network" of the WegenerNet Feldbach Region. It comprises 15 meteorological stations and two hydrographic station located in the mountainous Apine region of upper Styria, with station altitudes ranging from below 600 m to over 2100 m. The network extends over an area of about 16 km x 17 km and data are collected with a temporal sampling of 10 min. These networks are long-term operated and continuously provide quality-controlled data for a multitude of hydrometeorological near-surface and surface variables. The dataset consists of station time series (as .csv files) for the parameters listed below and gridded data (as NetCDF files) for air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, heat index, wind speed and direction, and wind gust speed and direction. A detailed description of all measured parameters can be found in the related publication listed below.
