A few notes:
* Each file is labeled by it's month and year.
* In QC'ing the data, I did not remove the "bad" data points. Instead, I
created an extra column that notes whether the data point has been removed or
not. Basically, for temp_1 there is a column r_temp_1. If r_temp_1 is set to
1, the data point has been removed. If r_temp_1 is set to 0, the data point
has not been removed. Then, when I read the data in to be plotted, I used the
r_temp_1 setting to determine if I should read the data point in. The data for
temp_2, temp_3, wspd_1, wspd_2, etc. are set up the same way. Let me know if
you have questions on this.
The column headers are as follows.
Year, Month, Day, Hour, Min, Sec, Rec_num, PTemp, Batt_Volt, Temp_1, r_temp_1,
Temp_2, r_temp_2, Temp_3, r_temp_3, Temp_4, r_temp_4, Temp_5, r_temp_5, Temp_6,
r_temp_6, Press, ws_cups1, r_ws_cups_1, ws_cups_2, r_ws_cups_2, ws_cups_3,
r_ws_cups_3, wspd_1, r_wspd_1, wdir_1, wspd_2, r_wspd_2, wdir_2, wspd_3,
r_wspd_3, wdir_3, wspd_4, r_wspd_4, wdir_4, net_SW, net_LW, RH_1, RH_3,
Raw_dist, Signal_qual, Dist
