Site ID 'Wolf" has incorrect coordinates #27

According to Miller et al. (2020), site id "Wolf" should correspond to the University College in Dublin. The coordinates for "Wolf" available in the metadata file correspond to a point near Lauwersoog in the Netherlands.

Accordingly, the latitude and longitude coordinates for Wolf should be updated from (53.3498, 6.2603) to a point near (53.3667, 6.2583), which is the Google Maps coordinates for the University College in Dublin.

I was concerned that the weather data would also be mismatched. Miller et al. (2020) use the weather data from NOAA ISD Station 039690-99999, which I verified is near or in Dublin, so there is no need to verify that this is the correct weather data set.
