Data Table

  • Title: Air Temperature and Relative Humidity from Colchester Reef 32-Meter Sensors
  • Start Date: 2006-07-19
  • End Date: 2015-10-01
  • Description: Air temperature and relative humidity data from the 32 meter level on the Colchester Reef meteorological station. Readings from this instrument became unreliable after approximately nine years, and were split off from the main dataset. We must caution that maintenance for this sensor likely discontinued in 2009, when maintenance of the MET1 wind sensors stopped. The end date of this dataset was determined through a comparison with the 38m CR air temp data. Towards the end of September and beginning of October of 2015, the data between the 32m air temp and 38m air temp readings drastically differed.

  • Purpose: Monitor air temperature and relative humidity at Colchester Reef from various heights.
