Station Name:
Bald Head Island Conservancy
City:
Bald Head Island, NC
Elevation:
30 feet above sea level
Network:
ECONET
(about)
North Carolina Environment and Climate Observing Network: The NC ECONet combines sensors from several networks into a single comprehensive database. SCO stations record hourly weather and environmental conditions are recorded by automated sensors. Parameters include air temperature, humidity, winds, precipitation, pressure, solar radiation, soil temperature, and soil moisture.Sensors are maintained by the State Climate Office. Observations are available each hour (generally since 1996) and every one minute (generally since the mid 2000s).

Network Overview
The ECONet is the NC State Climate Office's flagship network for research-grade weather observations. These stations measure all standard weather variables, along with parameters such as solar radiation, soil moisture and temperature, and leaf wetness, designed to aid with agricultural condition monitoring. ECONet data is processed each hour using rigorous quality control routines to flag potentially bad data and alert technicians of sensors that may need to be fixed or replaced.
