RxCADRE 2012: CSU-MAPS background wind, temperature, RH, and pressure time series data
This data publication contains California State University-Mobile Atmospheric Profiling System (CSU-MAPS) 30 meter micrometeorological mobile tower data collected during the 2012 Prescribed Fire Combustion and Atmospheric Dynamics Research Experiment (RxCADRE). Data collected include 2D wind speeds and directions, temperatures/relative humidity at 4 different heights, pressure data sampled every 2 seconds, and also include 10Hz sonic anemometer 3D wind data collected at 2 different heights. The tower was placed upwind of the plots for the S-345 and S-789, within the plots for the L1G and L2G burns, and downwind of the plot for the L2F burn. The tower collected the data before,throughout, and after the burns at a fixed location for each burn. Data were measured at the Eglin Air Force Base, northeast of Valparaiso, Florida in Okaloosa County.<br>The RxCADRE project was developed as a response to a lack of integrated, quality-assured fuels, atmospheric, fire behavior, energy, smoke and effects data, a problem which hinders scientists ability to evaluate fire models and tackle fundamental fire science questions. The goal of the project was to allowing leading fire scientists to come together and collect fire data on the same prescribed burns and to create quality fire and fuels data that can be shared between scientists and placed in a public database so it can be accessed by anyone.<br>A short summary of the RxCADRE project can be found in the full data publication download (\Supplements\RxCADRE_Project_Overview.pdf).
