Tower, 5-level hourly measurements plus radiometer and surface data at Met City (ASFG) [Andreas, E., C. Fairall, P. Guest, O. Persson]

Project:

SHEBA

Summary

This dataset contains processed data from the flux group tower at "Met City" in the SHEBA ice camp. This dataset contains data from all 5 levels on the tower as well as the radiometer and surface measurements (including the Barnes, GE and the two thermistors). The tower data include sensible heat flux and momentum flux as well as the relative humidity (RH), wind speed, and temperature data. This dataset also includes variances, structure functions etc. for each level.
