Abstract:

The following data was recorded at various desert field sites within Southern California. Data was collected between May 2022 and June 2022. 3 different deserts; Carrizo, Cuyama, and Mojave, were tested. Temperature pendants were deployed for 30 days and recorded local temperature at 1 hour intervals.
