SAMD CESAR

Cabauw Experimental Site for Atmospheric Research (CESAR)

The Cesar Observatory is located in the western part of the Netherlands in a region 0.7 m below mean sealevel. At the site a large set of instruments is operated to study the atmosphere and its interaction with the land surface. Please find further information: http://www.cesar-observatory.nl/

The data CESAR data sets in SAMD are a result of a cooperation of the CESAR with the project HD(CP)². Therefore data are available in the SAMD standard data format (special thanks to Henk Klein-Baltink).

More data sets and longer time series are freely available at: http://www.cesar-database.nl/Welcome.do

These data sets are part of the SAMD archive. See research section, to find more information about the SAMD Archive.
