How to cite this Dataset

Description

This data set provides the citizen science weather observations that were submitted to the National Eclipse Weather Experiment during the solar eclipse on 20-03-2015. In this experiment citizen scientists across the United Kingdom were asked to make measurements of air temperature and visual assessments of wind speed, wind direction and cloudiness, throughout the duration of the eclipse. These observations were then submitted via a web form and collated into this data set.
