Purpose
Data not provided. 
Lineage
The Bowen ratio energy balance measuring station records of global solar radiation at 3m, mean wind speed and gust speed at 3m, and air temperature and relative humidity at 1m and 3m from three sensors at each height were recorded from 18/05/2012 to 17/08/2012 at a temporal resolution of 20 minute interval. The instrument used is a Onset Hobo 15 channel weather station. 
Method DocumentationData not provided.
Procedure StepsData not provided.
The Great Western Woodlands flux station and supersite was established in 2012 on Credo Station, 110 km NNW of Kalgoorlie, WA.
