During the period December 2008 through March 2009, the following instruments were removed from the ARS Micronets: air temperature, relative humidity, and solar radiation. In addition, the soil temperature measurements transitioned from being measured by a stand-alone thermistor to being derived from the soil moisture sensor. Thus, the soil temperature depths changed from 5-, 10-, 15-, and 30-cm to 5-, 25-, and 45-cm. Historic data from the original sensors can still be downloaded via the interactive data request cgi.
