MARS Enviroweather Program
Enviroweather is a program administered by Michigan State University to develop and deliver a sustainable weather-based information system that helps users make pest, plant production, and natural resource management decisions. The program consists of over 100 weather stations across Michigan and Wisconsin that are continuously monitoring:
- Air Temperature
- Soil temperature
- Precipitation
- Wind speed and direction
- Dewpoint
- Leaf wetness
- Humidity
- Solar radiation
The Campbell Scientific automated weather system was installed at the Marshfield Agricultural Research in July of 2021. Real-time and historical data can be accessed online.
