cops_nebt_ubt_mast: Profile data of wind speed, temperature and water vapor pressure at profile mast run by University of Bayreuth during COPS 2007

The 9 m profile mast run by University of Bayreuth continuously measured profiles of the wind speed, the air temperature and the water vapor pressure above a corn field with a sampling frequency of 1 Hz averaged to 1 min values within the data logger. Six cup anemometers and five psychrometers have been mounted in different heights. After a check for plausibility the 1 min values have been averaged to 30 min intervals, which are provided in this data set. The following instruments have been installed for the parameters given below:

- wind speed: F460 cup anemometer (Climatronics Corp.)

- temperature and water vapor pressure: electrically aspirated psychrometer (Frankenberger)


The water vapor pressure has been calculated from the measured dry and moist thermometer temperatures of the psychrometer according to Sprung's psychrometer formula.

Measure description

None

Attribute description
surface_altitude
Descriptor

The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. Altitude is the (geometric) height above the geoid, which is the reference geopotential surface. The geoid is similar to mean sea level.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: m

Attribute description
air_temperature
Descriptor

Air temperature is the bulk temperature of the air, not the surface (skin) temperature. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: degC

Attribute description
water_vapor_pressure
Descriptor

water_vapor_pressure [CF-Standard Name]; unit: hPa

Attribute description
canopy_height
Descriptor

Height is the vertical distance above the surface. "Canopy" means the plant or vegetation canopy.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: m

Attribute description
longitude
Descriptor

longitude [CF-Standard Name]; unit: degree_east

Attribute description
latitude
Descriptor

latitude [CF-Standard Name]; unit: degree_north

Attribute description
wind_speed
Descriptor

Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.) The wind speed is the magnitude of the wind velocity.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: m s-1
