Site Details
+----------+
Lat: 39.23586
Long: -121.40621
Elev: 71m
Site Description: BVS is on a grassy, open area of the Browns Valley Elementary School Campus. 
Instrumentation note: station is near school grounds irrigation. Sprinklers nearest the site have been shut off but users should be mindful of lateral flow impacts.

Instrumentation on site:
	-Data logger: CR1000X
	-Barometer (pressure): Vaisala PTB110
	-Temperature/relative humidity: CS HygroVue10
	-Tipping bucket (precipitation): TE525MM
	-Anemometer (wind speed/direction): RM Young 05108
	-Pyranometer (solar radiation): CS320
	-Soil moisture/temperature: CS616/CS107

Processing
+---------+
This data has not undergone any processing. CW3E is currently working on a partly automated, partly manual QC process to clean and improve all data as it is downloaded to make it easier for interested scientists and stakeholders to use. This is an ongoing effort and planned updates for precipitation and soil moisture data include the following:
	- Create automated flagging system for missing timestamps and for values outside of realistic range (e.g., <0).
	- Continue visual assessment for unrealistic jumps and comparisons between other nearby stream gauges and precipitation observations.
