GCIP/NESOB-97 Surface: Hourly Surface Meteorological Composite

The GCIP/NESOB-97 Hourly Surface Composite contains data from several networks (i.e., Automated Surface Observing System, Department Of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Surface,Wind Profiler Network, High Plains Climate Network, National Climatic Data Center DATSAV2, and the NOAA Atmospheric Turbulence and Diffusion Division Little Washita site) for the NESOB 97 domain. Data from these sources were merged and quality controlled for the GCIP/ESOP-97 area and time of interest and were then cut to the NESOB 97 area of interest to form this Surface Composite. These data files are available as ASCII text files and netCDF data files.
