Water Data for the Nation inventory

Monitoring location 440721123182200 is associated with an Atmosphere in Lane County, Oregon. Current conditions of Precipitation, Relative humidity, Temperature, and more are available. Water data back to 2019 are available online.

The 15-minute Air Temperature, Relative Humidity, Solar Radiation, Wind Speed, and Wind Direction data for this station are considered operational and only the past 120 days are made available. Although the instrumentation is calibrated at least twice per year and the manufacturers routine calibration and quality checks guidance is followed, the temporary data availability (120 days) classification means that quality assurance measures are not performed to a level for the data to be fully published and acceptable for archival, retrieval, or future use in general scientific or interpretive studies.
