​The Onset weather station in Goldstream Valley was installed in June 2023. The weather station is composed of the following instruments:
​
-Air temperature/relative humidity (RH) sensor
-Ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor
-Rain gauge
-Barometric pressure
-Photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) sensor
-Soil temperature at 15cm/ 6 in depth
-Soil Moisture at 15 cm/ 6 in depth
-Solar panel to charge the system

A pyranometer (solar radiation) sensor will be installed in summer 2024.
