Summary
Abstract: LTER/VCR001:
LTER Level-3 weather stations located at Brownsville (Nassawadox, VA) Phillips

minute and log summaries every hour. Parameters measured include
temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, precipitation,
solar radiation, and photosynthetically active radiation. Tidal
