The unit of the variable.

Open lizhuoq opened this issue 4 months ago • 2 comments

I couldn't find your description about the units. Can I understand the unit of soil moisture as m3/m3, the units of soil temperature, air temperature, and soil surface temperature as °C, the unit of precipitation as mm/h, the unit of soil suction as kPa, and the units of snow water equivalent and snow depth as mm? With respect for your work, I hope to receive your reply. Thank you.

Hi @lizhuoq. Thanks for bringing this up. Yes these are the correct units. Still, I think you have a valid point that it is not immediately clear what the correct units for each variable are from the website and downloaded data. I have notified the ISMN maintainers about better communicating the units on the website and I will keep this issue open as a reminder for myself to integrate them better in this package as well.
