CASES99: One day of 1-s averages of the thermocouple temperature data from CASES-99 dataset

Description

These are 1-s averages of the CASES-99 (Poulos et al. 2002) thermocouple temperature data at the seventh level (9.5 m) from 1100 LST 5 October to 1100 LST 6 October.

Details

Cooperative Atmosphere-Surface Exchange Study (CASES-99) was conducted over a relatively flat-terrain rural grassland site near Leon, Kansas, during October 1999. As a part of the extensive observations, a 60-m tower was equipped with thermocouples at 34 vertical levels (0.23, 0.63, 2.3 m, and every 1.8 m above 2.3 m) that sampled air temperature five times per second (Sun et al. 2012), while 20-Hz sonic anemometer measurements were taken at seven levels (1.5, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 55 m). 1-s averages of the CASES-99 thermocouple temperature data at the seventh level (9.5 m) from 1100 LST 5 October to 1100 LST 6 October are taken as an example for detection and clustering of events.
