1 Notice to Data Users: The documentation for this data set was provided solely by the Principal Investigator(s) and was not further developed, thoroughly reviewed, or edited by NSIDC. Thus, support for this data set may be limited. Summary SMEX03 ALMNet and SCAN Soil Moisture Data: Alabama This data set includes precipitation, soil temperature, and soil moisture data measured during the Soil Moisture Experiment 2003 (SMEX03), conducted during June and July 2003 in northern Alabama and southern Tennessee, USA. The output parameters include precipitation; and soil temperatures and volumetric soil moisture at depths of 5 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm, 60 cm, and 100 cm. Data were collected at crop, pasture and forested sites. Those sites are part of the Alabama MesoNet (ALMNet) network, which is run by the Soil Climatology and Remote Sensing Center (HSCaRS) of Alabama A & M University that is part of the USDA NRCS Soil Climate Analysis Network (SCAN) network. Data are provided in an Excel spreadsheet and an ASCII text file, and are available via FTP. Citing These Data Coleman, T., Tsegaye, T., Metzl, R., and M. Schamschula SMEX03 ALMNet and SCAN Soil Moisture Data: Alabama. Boulder, Colorado USA: NASA DAAC at the National Snow and Ice Data Center.

Detailed Data Description: Format Data are provided in a Microsoft Excel file and as a separate text files for the ALMNet and SCAN data. The text files contain the same data as the Excel file. In the text files, data are in tab-delimited format. File and Directory Structure: There are no sub-directories. File Naming Convention: The Excel file is named SMEX03_AL_ALMNet_SCAN.xls. The text files are named SMEX03_AL_ALMNet.txt and SMEX03_AL_SCAN.txt. File Size: The Excel file size is 4.6 MB. The text file sizes are 3.9 MB for ALMNet and.8 MB for SCAN. Spatial Coverage: Southernmost Latitude: N Northernmost Latitude: N Westernmost Longitude: W Easternmost Longitude: W The following table contains the locations of the ALMNet sites: ALMNet Site Latitude Longitude Number PS PS PS PS PS PS
3 PS PS PS PS PS PS PS PS PS PS Temporal Coverage: 1 June 2003 to 15 July 2003 Temporal Resolution: Readings were taken hourly in the USDA NRCS SCAN Sites and every 15 minutes in the Alabama MesoNet (ALMNet) Sites. Parameter or Variable Parameter Description Parameters in this data set include precipitation; and soil temperature and volumetric soil moisture at depths of 5 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm, 60 cm, and 100 cm. Parameter Range: The following table details the column headings in the Excel file.

4 These data columns were repeated for all Alabama MesoNet (ALMNet) sites as well as the SCAN sites. If the suffix after the hyphen in the heading starts with a PS then a number, this means that the site is one of the Alabama MesoNet (ALMNet) sites, which has 15-min readings; otherwise it is one of the USDA SCAN sites, which has hourly readings. Data that were not collected are shown as The Letters in the Prefix (Before the Hyphen) of the column heading represents the measured parameter: (PR) for Precipitation in Millimeters; (ST) for Soil Temperature (Degrees Celsius); and (SM) for Soil Moisture. The Number in the Prefix (Before the Hyphen) of the column heading represents the Depth in Centimeters. The Letters and Numbers in the Suffix (After the Hyphen) of the column heading represent the Site ID (The ALMNet sites IDs start with PS then a number). Sample Data Record The following is a sample from the data file "Soil_Temps_AL.txt": DATE_HOUR_ PR_PS01 (mm) ST5_PS01 SM10_PS01 ST10_PS01 SM20_PS01 ST20_PS01 SM30_PS01 SM40_PS01 SM60_PS01 SM100_PS /6/1:0: /6/1:0: /6/1:0: /6/1:0: Data that were not collected are shown Data Access and Tools: Data Access: Software and Tools: Microsoft Excel is required to view the spreadsheet file. A word-processing program or Web browser is sufficient for viewing the text files. 4. Data Acquisition and Processing: Theory of Measurements: Sensor or Instrument Description: Investigators used a tipping bucket device to measure precipitation, a dielectric-measuring device to measure soil moisture, and an encapsulated thermistor to measure soil temperature. 5.
