IHOPUDSPnS1H README

The data in this directory are a suite of 30-min soil properties data obtained during 
the International H2O Project 2002 (IHOP) at the nine NCAR/IHOP surface stations.


FILE NAME: 

IHOPUDSPnS1H.txt

n 	Numeric value indicating the soil profile number.

Each soil profile, denoted by n, is associated with a specific IHOP surface site 
as follow:
