Debasmita + Arun asked for actual weather data from 2021, to validate the accuracy of the weather forecasts used. Daymet data is available for the first 6 months of 2021, but in a provisional form not accessible to 'daymetr' functionality.
[ ] obtain and upload the daymet .cdf files to the data/ folder on Welsch
[ ] extract radiation, max_temp, min_temp, and precipitation for the 8 NEON sites
Alternatively, use the weather data locally collected at NEON sites to obtain the same variables. Discuss with Kristina about approaches.
