Ron Brown Near-Surface Mean Meteorology and Fluxes (5-min) - Leg 2 https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/72.033 Summary This dataset contains data collected aboard the ship Ron Brown for EPIC. The data are made up of computations of bulk meteorological variables and fluxes derived from the ETL system based on preliminary analysis done during Leg 2 of the EPIC2001 cruise. Most quantities given are subject to future modification based on accounting for other sources of data and revised calibrations. No direct turbulent flux calculations are included in this present data.
