Surface Atmospheric Measurement Systems (SAMS) Data

This dataset contains Surface Atmospheric Measurement Systems (SAMS) data for the Instabilities, Dynamics and Energetics accompanying Atmospheric Layering (IDEAL) project. These are the meteorological data from Dugway Proving Ground tower network. The data file is in comma separated ASCII value format. An Excel (.xls) file with each site's latitude, longitude and elevation is also included. See the readme for further information.
