Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER)/KNZ001: Prairie Precipitation from the Konza Prairie Research Natural Area (KPRNA)
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Lter - Long-Term Ecological Research Program/Konza Prairie (KNZ) LTER/KNZ001 [Summary adapted from the LTER Core Data Set Catalog]: This data set contains daily records of precipitation on 11 raingauges at 10 sites on Konza Prairie.
Description
Three sites (HQ1, 020A and 002C; SE) have 7-day clocks (one revolution per week), while the other 8 have 24-hour clocks (one revolution per day). The Konza headquarters weather station has one of each type and both are operated year-round.
The remaining raingauges are operated from April 1 to November 1. Precipitation amounts are recorded in mm. Data from all raingauges are recorded on daily bases while raingauges with one day clocks also have data recorded on 15 minute increment during storm events.

The Konza Prairie Research Natural Area (KPRNA) is a representative of native tallgrasss prairie in the Flint Hills of eastern Kansas. The Konza Prairie was established as a research facility in 1972 and now contains 3,487 ha. The land was acquired by the Nature Conservancy and is leased to the Division of Biology at Kansas State University for research purposes.
