Weather observations during the 1997 Magitchlie Creek Experimental Fire, Innoko National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska, USA. (A) Onsite air temperature, (B) relative humidity, (C) wind speed, and (D) wind direction observations were collected every three minutes at 2 m high using a portable Campbell Scientific weather station. Hourly observations for air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction from the closest Remote Automatic Weather Station (RAWS) were collected from the Innoko Flats RAWS, located approximately 26.7 km from the fire site. Winds were adjusted to 10-meter to serve as input to fire behavior models. WAF = Weather Adjustment Factor
