Weather records for the Elora Research Station, Elora, Ontario [Canada]: Meteorological data 2003 to 2007

The University of Guelph, School of Environmental Sciences, Agricultural and Forest Meteorology Group, in cooperation with Environment Canada, maintains an automatic weather station at the Elora Research Station located a few kilometres south of Elora, Ontario. This station collects hourly climatic data including pressure, air temperature, relative humidity, wind direction and speed at 2m and 10m above ground, solar radiation, longwave radiation, precipitation, snow on ground, snowfall, amount of sunshine, and soil temperature. This data set includes climatic data collected from September 9, 2003 to December 31, 2007, and is presented as monthly data files broken down into five categories: hourly data, 0800 (maximum/minimum values for data collected from 1700 yesterday to 0800 today except soil temperatures which are measured at 0800), 1700 (maximum/minimum values for data collected from 0800 today to 1700 today except soil temperatures which are measured at 1700), 24 hour (data for 24 hour period from 0100 hours), and precipitation (at every minute of occurrence) data. Annual files are also available for hourly, 0800, and 1600 data. Supplement data, including hand collected temperature, humidity and precipitation data, organized by year is included. The weather station was fitted with an updated suite of instruments during August 2003 therefore a new set of meteorological parameters are being collected starting in September 2003 and the file formats are different from previous years data. The data for January 2003 to September 2003, collected using the old meteorological station, are included in the study Weather Records for the Elora Research Station, Elora, Ontario [Canada]: Meteorological data 1999 to 2003.

加拿大圭尔夫大学环境科学学院农业与森林气象学小组与加拿大环境部合作，在安大略省埃洛拉以南数公里的埃洛拉研究站架设了一座自动气象站。该站每小时采集气候数据，涵盖气压、气温、相对湿度、地面以上2米和10米处的风向与风速、太阳辐射、长波辐射、降水量、地面积雪厚度、降雪量、日照时长以及土壤温度。本数据集包含2003年9月9日至2007年12月31日采集的气候数据，以月度数据文件形式存储，分为五大类别：逐小时数据、0800时数据（采集时段为昨日1700时至今日0800时的极值，其中土壤温度为当日0800时实测值）、1700时数据（采集时段为今日0800时至今日1700时的极值，其中土壤温度为当日1700时实测值）、24小时数据（统计时段为当日0100时起的24小时周期数据）以及降水数据（按降水发生的每一分钟记录）。此外还提供逐小时、0800时及1600时数据的年度文件。数据集附带按年份整理的补充数据，其中包含人工采集的温度、湿度与降水数据。该气象站于2003年8月完成仪器套件升级，因此自2003年9月起开始采集全新的气象参数，且文件格式与往年数据存在差异。2003年1月至2003年9月使用旧气象站采集的数据，已收录于《加拿大安大略省埃洛拉研究站气象记录：1999年至2003年气象数据》研究资料中。
