WFSI Fort Stewart 2022, 2024 and Eglin Air Force Base 2023 Research Burn Campaigns Fire Weather Data

Fire weather and micrometeorological data collected from a modified Campbell Scientific Inc. remote automated weather station (RAWS-F). The station was deployed adjacent to the burn units prior to the planned burn ignition and collected data through the burn. Most data are reported at 1-minute intervals. Wind data was collected with a two-dimensional ultrasonic anemometer.

method Please refer to the "WFSI Fort Stewart and Eglin Air Force Base Campaigns Campbell Scientific Inc RAWS F Metadata.txt" file for more details. All station locations in dataset are referenced to the NAD1983 datum. A Campbell Scientific Inc. RAWS-F weather station with updated and calibrated sensors was deployed upwind and adjacent to a burn unit in representative fuels and forest structure before the scheduled burn. The wind sensor was positioned at 2m above ground, air temperature and humidity sensor positioned at approximately 1.5 m above ground. The station was programmed to measure sensors at 1 second intervals and to store processed data (average, standard deviation, maximums, totals) at 1 minute intervals. One sensor, a 10 hour fuel stick moisture probe, was measured and sampled hourly. A GPS logged by the station was used to capture the station location and to synchronize the station clock to Universal Time Coordinated. A photo was taken of the station in context. The station and sensor status was checked and the time of the initial measurements was noted.
