Abstract:
This data publication contains Brooklyn Lake meteorological tower data collected from 1987-1998 at the Glacier Lakes Ecosystem Experiments Site (GLEES), in the Snowy Range near Centennial, Wyoming. These data were recompiled from previously-unreported internal records stored as ASCII text, spreadsheets, physical data sheets, and physical data charts. To reconstitute the most complete possible record of meteorogolical data at the Brooklyn Lake tower, we standardized units and time codes, digitized the physical formats, and selected the best possible record where overlap among data formats existed. The resulting measured variables include air temperature, soil temperature, wind speed, wind direction, ozone concentration, relative humidity, wetness, dryness, precipitation, and shortwave, longwave, and net radiation at a mixture of hourly and half-hourly intervals.
