CLPX-Ground: Micrometeorological Measurements Over Snow, Tower Mounted
Entry ID: NSIDC-0162

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: This data set presents micrometeorological data from the Flux over Snow Surfaces (FLOSS) project carried out during the Cold Land Processes Field Experiment (CLPX) at North Park, Colorado, USA. The project measured air temperature, air pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, water vapor flux, carbon dioxide, longwave and shortwave radiation, soil temperature, soil moisture, soil heat flux, precipitation, snow depth, and eddy correlation. Measurements were collected between 1 Dec 2001 and 27 March 2002, and between 20 November 2002 and 24 March 2003. Sensors were installed on a 24-meter tower, and on 2-meter and 4-meter platforms.

Access Constraints None
Use Constraints The Apache Canyon 7.5' geologic-map database should be used to evaluate and
understand the geologic character of the Apache Canyon quadrangle as a whole.
The data should not be used for purposes of site-specific land-use planning or
site-specific geologic evaluations. The database is sufficiently detailed to
identify and characterize many actual and ... View entire text
