GCIP/ESOP-96: Hourly Surface Meteorological Composite

The GCIP/ESOP-96 Hourly Surface Composite contains data from several networks (i.e., Automated Surface Observing System, Department Of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Surface,Wind Profiler Network, High Plains Climate Network, Colorado Agricultural Meteorological Network, Missouri Automated Agricultural Network, Missouri Department of Conservation Fire Network, New Mexico State University, and the National Climatic Data Center Surface Airways Observations for the ESOP 96 domain.

Data from these sources were merged and quality controlled to form this Surface Composite. These data files are available as ASCII text files and netCDF data files.
