Climatological data were collected from a Niwot Ridge climate station (D1) throughout the year. From July 5 2000 through October 23 2013, data were recorded using a Campbell Instruments CR23X data logger. Subsequently, data were recorded using a Campbell Instruments CR1000 data logger. Maximum and minimum values are recorded instantaneously, with a sampling interval of 5 seconds. Daily averages and totals were calculated from 17,280 individual measurements. This instrument was programmed to generate both hourly and daily output. Beginning in June 25 2009, 10 minute output was also generated. Daily output generated by the logger ended in 2014.
