The micrometeorological base of CNR-ISAC in Lecce, South-East of Italy, is active since 2002, in collecting experimental data about surface-atmosphere transfer of momentum heat and water vapour. It operates in a suburban site inside the Salento University campus and has been improved along the past years in terms of active sensors to give a quite complete description of the soil-atmosphere vertical transfer. It is composed by a 16 m mast with fast response (eddy correlation) instrumentation and an ancillary automatic meteorological station collecting also soil data at 2 levels depth. Fast response data are pre-processed in half-hour averaged statistics. All collected data are available in a web database (www.basesperimentale.le.isac.cnr.it) where they can be either visualized or downloaded. At present the Lecce data base is also a pilot reference structure for the Climate Change Section of the CNR-DTA GIIDA project (National Research Council - Earth and Environment Department, Interdisciplinary and Interoperative Management of Environmental Data), aimed to build a spatial data infrastructure between different CNR-DTA structures collecting environmental data. It is also a data provider for the Hymex project database ( Hydrological Mediterranean Experiment, www.hymex.org).

Abstract
The micrometeorological base of CNR-ISAC in Lecce, South-East of Italy, is active since 2002, in collecting experimental data about surface-atmosphere transfer of momentum heat and water vapour. It operates in a suburban site inside the Salento University campus and has been improved along the past years in terms of active sensors to give a quite complete description of the soil-atmosphere vertical transfer. It is composed by a 16 m mast with fast response (eddy correlation) instrumentation and an ancillary automatic meteorological station collecting also soil data at 2 levels depth. Fast response data are pre-processed in half-hour averaged statistics. All collected data are available in a web database (www.basesperimentale.le.isac.cnr.it) where they can be either visualized or downloaded. At present the Lecce data base is also a pilot reference structure for the Climate Change Section of the CNR-DTA GIIDA project (National Research Council - Earth and Environment Department, Interdisciplinary and Interoperative Management of Environmental Data), aimed to build a spatial data infrastructure between different CNR-DTA structures collecting environmental data.
