Skin Temperature Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/40.023

Summary
The GCIP/NESOB-97 Surface: Skin Temperature Composite dataset is composed of
30 minute observations of skin temperaturesderived from 3 sources. These are:
Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Solar and
Infrared Radiation Observing System (SIROS) 10M and 25M, and the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration NOAA/Atmospheric Turbulence and
Diffusion Division (ATDD) long term flux monitoring site located in the Little
Washita Watershed. These data were not quality controlled by the University
Corporation for Atmospheric Research/Joint Office for Science Support
(UCAR/JOSS). Standard deviations are included.
