Abstract

Weather stations deployed across the CZO Shale Transect, including sites in New York, Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama and Puerto Rico, provide continuous measurements of climatic conditions influencing shale weathering. Measurements are recorded every two hours and include precipitation, air temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, wind speed, soil temperature, soil moisture and soil electrical conductivity. Data output from each weather station will help researchers understand the effects of climate on shale weathering and soil processes in various climates.
