This is the home page for the SHEBA Atmospheric Surface Flux Group. Our group was responsible for the surface flux measurements during the SHEBA project. Our instruments were located at the large tower site about 1 km from the ship and at four Portable Automated Mesonet (PAM) sites located in various locations near the ship. We are currently processing the one year's worth of data that we collected. We collected approximately 30 billion data points. If you would like access to the data send a message to one of the PIs listed below. Please contact Peter if you find any errors or if you have anything more to contribute to these web pages.
