Shroud Experiment 2020

<p>This dataset contains the data used for the paper titled &quot;<strong>Toward quantifying turbulent vertical airflow and sensible heat flux in tall forest canopies using fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing</strong>&quot;.</p> <p>This first part of the dataset contains the experiment conducted between April 2020 and June 2020 at the Ecological Botanical Garden (EBG) at the University of Bayreuth.&nbsp;Two upside-down sonic anemometers (Model USA-1, Metek GmbH, Elmshorn, Germany) at 1.5 m height (middle of the shroud) and two quad disk pressure ports attached to a nano resolution digital barometer (Model 745-16B, Paroscientific, Inc.) at 1 m above ground set up; one of each sensor placed inside the cylindrical shroud.&nbsp;The sonic anemometer and static pressure data recorded at sampling frequencies of 20 Hz.</p> <p>The second part of the dataset contains the experiment conducted at the Waldstein-Weidenbrunnen long-term ecosystem flux site between October 2020 and November 2020 as part of the LOEWE20 (Large Eddy ObsErvatory Walsstein Experiment 2020) experiment.&nbsp;Two high-resolution DTS instruments (Model 5 km Ultima, Silixa, London, UK) used to observe the continuous temperature with a spatial resolution of 0.127 m averaged over 6 seconds.&nbsp;Quartet FO array containing two pairs of parallel coned and unconed FO cables extending from the ground to the top canopy at 34 m and 36m height&nbsp;for main and turbulence tower.</p>
