Description and Data Archives of the University of Kansas Field Station (KUFS) Weather Station (1986-2008)

The University of Kansas Field Station (KUFS) acquired climate data from a single location, known as the Nelson Environmental Study Area (NESA), from 1986-2008. The weather station at NESA was set to sample eight atmospheric parameters (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) using a battery-powered datalogger. Raw data, data summeries, and complete metadata and documentation for the operation of the KUFS Weather Station at NESA are available. In August 2008, a new NRCS SCAN network weather station was installed adjacent to the KUFS weather station at NESA as its replacement.
