Description

Time series data of physical oceanography (salinity, temperature) and meteorology (atmospheric pressure, wind speed and direction, air temperature and humidity, shortwave radiation, longwave radiation and rain) collected from July 2016 to May 2017 by observatory W1M3A at 1h interval. The file contains tabular data (tab delimited) with the following columns: Day; Month; Year; UTC Hour; Minute ; Longitude [deg]; Latitude [deg]; Atmospheric Pressure [hPa]; Wind speed [m/s]; Wind direction [deg]; Air Temperature [°C]; Relative air humidity [%]; Short wave Radiation [W/m2]; Long wave radiation [W/m2]; Rainfall [mm/h]; Sea temperature @ 6 m [°C]; Sea temperature @ 20 m [°C]; Sea temperature @ 36 m [°C];  Salinity @ 6 m [psu]; Salinity @ 20 m [psu],  Salinity @ 36 m [psu] 

Notes

The data acquisition was partially supported by the Italian project RITMARE- COFUND BANDIERA ("Best Action for National Development of International Expert Researchers Activities")
