Continuous measurement of air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, global radiation, photosynthetic active radiation, UVB radiation, and precipation in an open field very close to the LWF plot as well as air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, photosynthetic active radiation, and precipitation in the forest below the canopy. ### Purpose: ### Recording meteorological conditions ### Manual Citation: ### * Martine Rebetez, Gustav Schneiter, 1997: Meteorologie.
