GCIP/EAOP-98 Surface: Hourly Surface Meteorological Composite

The GCIP/EAOP-98 Hourly Surface Composite contains data from several networks (i.e., Automated Surface Observing System, Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory, National Climatic Data Center DATSAV3, University of Kentucky Research Farms, North Carolina Agricultural Research Service Weather and Climate Network, Illinois Climate Network, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Atmospheric Turbulence and Diffusion Division, Natural Resource Conservation Service Soil Moisture Soil Temperature Network, USDA/ARS North Appalachian Experimental Watershed Data (Coshocton), Coweeta Long Term Ecological Research, W.K. Kellogg Biological Station, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Tennessee Valley Authority) for the EAOP 98 LSA-East domain. Data from these sources were merged and quality controlled to form this Surface Composite. These data files are available as ASCII text files and netCDF data files.
