EMESH Surface Station Observations
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/561.013

Summary
This dataset contains data collected from a dense network of Environmental
Monitoring, Economical Sensor Hubs (EMESH) stations from the University of
Alabama at Huntsville (UAH). These EMESH stations were deployed during the
GRAINEX (Great Plains Irrigation Experiment) project to acquire meteorology,
soil moisture and soil temperature observations. Specifically, this dataset
contains 2m temperature, 2m pressure, 2m relative humidity, 3m wind,
noncumulative rainfall, 5cm soil temperature, 30cm soil temperature, 5cm soil
moisture, and 30cm soil moisture.
