Climate Parameter Quality Check for site Motilon Checking modules: 1. Does a value exist? Quality flag is set to "d = missing" 2. Checking of site specific threshold value. If the value is not inbetween the thresholds the quality flag is set to "c = out of range": Windspeed max = 10 Global Radiation max = 1400 Soil temperature in 0cm depth max = 45 Soil temperature in 0cm depth min = 5 Soil temperature in 10cm depth max = 30 Soil temperature in 10cm depth min = 10 Soil temperature in 60cm depth max = 20 Soil temperature in 60cm depth min = 10 Air temperature in 2m max = 35 Air temperature in 2m min = 5 Air humidity max = 100 Air humidity min = 10 3. Checking the plausibility of air temperature and air humidity within the measurement intervals by comparing the previous and current values. If the temperature amplitude is higher then 10°C and humidity amplitude is higher than 30% the plausibility of this variation is checked by comparing to the variation of the other parameter. The quality flag is set to "e = variation implausible". 4. Precipitation check If precipitation is more than 40 mm then quality flag is set to "c = out of range" If precipitation is more than 15 mm and air temperature increases more than 0.2 °C inbetween a temporal interval then quality flag is set to "e = variation impossible". 5. Wind direction is not quality checked and flag is set to "nqc = not quality checked" All other values are set to "a = valid".

Abstract: The near surface humidity in a megadiverse mountain ecosystem in southern Ecuador is examined on the basis of Relative Humidity (RH) measurements inside the natural mountain forest and at open sites alon an altitudinal gradient from 1700 to 3200 m. The maps in the dataset are the product of a study with the main metodologocal aim to generate a humidity regionalization tool to provide spatial datasets on average monthly mean, minimum and maximum RH, Specific Humidity (q) and Specific Satuartion Deficit (Ds) by using observation data of RH. The maps based on data of the period 1999-2009 can be used by ecologocal projects working on various plots where no climate station data are available.
