Abstract 

Yongxing Island is located south of the Tropic of Cancer and has a tropical monsoon climate. Due to being surrounded by the sea and having a small land area, it has the characteristics of a maritime climate. Located around 100m off the northeastern coast of Yongxing Island, the Yongxing air–sea flux tower (YXASFT) stands at the height of 20m and was specifically designed for observing air-sea boundary layer fluxes. A CR3000 data logger manufactured by Campbell Scientific Company, USA, is used for data sampling, preprocessing, storage, and transmission. Each parameter is sampled once every second, and 1 min, 10 min, and 30 min averages are recorded and transmitted to the data center in real-time.

Instructions: 

The observation elements included in this dataset include sea surface temperature, atmospheric temperature, atmospheric pressure, wind speed, and rainfall.
