CEOP Reference Sites Data Release Guidelines

CEOP Reference Site Data Categories:
Standard Data (Category 1):
Common or low exploitation value, measurement
technology common, generally well understood.
Enhanced or Experimental Data (Category 2):
High exploitation value, measurement technology
sophisticated and/or of experimental nature, contact to PIs
highly recommended.

Data providers decide on category division of their data !

CEOP Reference Sites Data Release Guidelines

Data exchange guidelines (I) :(1) To comply withWMO Resolutions 40 (CG-XII) and 25 (CG-XIII)
in particular: No financial implications.
(2) CDA and data users: Commercial exploitation of CEOP
data is prohibited.
(3) Data users: No transfer to third parties.
(4) Data release to data users: Turn-around period.
Category 1 data: 6 months
Category 2 data: 15 months

Data exchange guidelines (II) :(5) Acknowledgement and citation:(5.1) Data users‘ publications: CEOP, CDA, Data providers(5.2) CDA: Data providers and their funding sources(6) Co-Authorship for Reference Sites’ PIs recommended,
collaboration base required if PI requests co-authorship(in particular for category 2 data)(7) CEOP Publication Library at CDA

CEOP EOP-1 DATA ISSUES SUMMARY(7 October 2002)
BALTEX
Cabauw – In sample, received several types of data not provided for EOP-1:
Radiosonde, wind profiler, RASS, radiometer, ceilometer, and35 GHz radar.

Lindenberg - Still need high-resolution radiosonde data and surface fluxes.
Sodankyla - No documentation for radiation data files in either sample orEOP-1. Still need high resolution radiosonde data.

CAMP
NE Thailand - Still need SMTMS (soils) and sounding data. Radiation andground heat flux parameters in voltage units.

Mongolia - Data only through mid-September. They said they would provide
rest. It would be best if they could provide whole time period
again rather than separate files of last few days.
Any other CAMP sites still going to be providing data (e.g. Tibet)?

CEOP EOP-1 DATA ISSUES SUMMARY (cont’d.)(7 October 2002)
CATCH
Data/Information received 9 September 2002 – being reviewed

GAPP
No data provided from Oak Ridge site.
Data was provided from Black Hills site which is not now a reference site.

LBA
Still need radiosonde data for Brasilia, Caxiuana, and Manaus.
Still need radiosonde data for Santarem for 1-17 July and 16 Aug–30
Sept. Presumably this would be lower resolution off site data. And it would
actually be best if they would provide this off-site data for the entire period sothat there would be one consistent radiosonde site during EOP-1.
For Santarem we have only received the one month of radiosonde data, is there
going to be AWS or flux data?
The Brasilia data we received did not have surface meteorological data (i.e. airtemp, precip, etc). Are there any surface meteorological data at this site?
