The provided data summarizes the atmospheric measurements taken at the weather station of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, covering various parameters over different time periods and depths below and above the ground. For more information see "Description_weather_data.pdf"

Location:

  • The weather station has had three different locations:
    1. Botanical Garden (2001 - 4.9.2007)
    2. Am Brunnen (2.11.2007 - 12.5.2009)
    3. Current Location since 4.8.2009

Variables:

The dataset includes the following variables:

  1. Time (Zeit): Recorded in UTC format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).
  2. Temperature Measurements:
    • Various depths below the ground:
      • -2m, -1m, -50cm, -20cm, -10cm, -5cm, -2cm (measured in °C)
    • Above ground temperatures:
      • t5cm, t20cm, t2m (all measured in °C)
  3. Wind Measurements:
    • Windri: Wind direction (°) at 10 m above ground.
    • Windges: Mean wind speed (m/s) from the latest measurement interval.
    • Windmax: Maximum wind gust (m/s) from the latest measurement interval.
  4. Humidity and Pressure:
    • relHum: Relative humidity (%) at 2 m above ground.
    • Press: Atmospheric pressure (not specified in the list).
  5. Precipitation:
    • Niederschlag: Precipitation (mm) during the last measurement interval.
    • Kumulativer_Niederschlag: Accumulated precipitation (mm) for the current year.
