BetaBetaDataset
To provide essential weather inputs data to support various analyses in Africa RISING sites for modeling biophysical processes and understanding the biophysical condition of watersheds.
The data collection started in 2014 and is still ongoing.
Data contains wether inputs: precipitation, soil moisture (volumetric water content, soil temperature, cation exchange capacity (CEC)), wind (direction, speed, and gusts), air temperature, solar radiation, and relative humidity.
Data was collected using weather balloons, satellites, radars, and experimental studies.
