The composite data set below records daily precipitation and temperature for the Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve, taken from the most local and most reliable sources available at any time. Most of the recent composite data are from on-site weather stations, which record temperature and precipitation via automated sensors. During the winter, precipitation is measured via an anti-freeze container. When data from the on-site stations were not available, data from nearby National Weather Service stations were substituted. The composite weather data is thus complete and is the most reliable long-term weather data for the site.
Hourly weather data from CC2 are provided in a comma-separated (csv) text file beginning in mid-2005. Missing values are indicated by an “m”.
Additional raw data sources are listed below. For more information, please contact the data manager, webmaster@cedarcreek.umn.edu.
