Description

These data contain down-welled global longwave hemispherical radiation taken during the Wisconsin FIRE/SRB experiment. The data set consists of measurements taken every minute for 5 ground stations during each 24 hour day. The data include values from October 12 through November 2, 1986.The number, location, latitude, and longitude of the FIRE/SRB WISCONSIN sites are:NUMBER LOCATION LATITUDE(DEG N) LONGITUDE(DEG W)1 FT.
