OKMESO Little Washita Micronet and Soil Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/84.005

Summary
This dataset contains Oklahoma Little Washita Watershed Micronet 5 minute
meteorological and 15 minute soil temperature data. There are 42 stations in
the micronet. ARS quality control flags are included in the data. Time is in
CST. The format is described in the readme file. Disclaimer: The Agricultural
Research Service (ARS) Micronet data set is derived from a network of sensors
deployed in the 610 square kilometer Little Washita River Experimental
Watershed (LWREW), located in southwestern Oklahoma. The LWREW is operated and
maintained by the Grazinglands Research Laboratory (GRL) in El Reno, OK. For
further information on the LWREW or GRL please visit our web site at
grl.ars.usda.gov. We welcome your interest in and use of the Micronet data,
but we request that recipient not distribute, publish or disseminate the data
under the recipient's name without full and up-front acknowledgment of the ARS
and GRL as the source of the data, and that the recipient acknowledges the
support and role of the ARS and GRL in publications that use and are based on
the Micronet data. It should be further understood that the ARS and its
employees make no warranties, expressed or implied, concerning the accuracy,
completeness, reliability or suitability for any one purpose, and that ARS and
its employees shall be under no liability to any person by reason of any use
made thereof.
