Abstract
This data represents several experiments conducted on Ger for UNICEF Mongolia's Ger of the 21st Century Project. The aims of that porject were to improve the thermal performance of ger (or "yurts" in Russian) to decrease air pollution in Mongolia. Four main experiments were conducted for that project. In the 2018-2019 winter, data was collected on the Penn Ger, an experimental ger built at the University of Pennsylvania's Pennovation research campus. Several experiments were conducted on this ger to evaluate different experimental techniques and protocals that could be deployed in Mongolia. During the 2018-2019 winter, the 2018-2019 Test Ger were built on a ranch near Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. These ger tested different thermal interventions that might be applied broadly in Mongolia. Also during the 2018-2019 winter, five occupied ger in the ger districts north of Ulaanbaatar, the 2018-2019 Occupied Ger, were monitored to understand baseline thermal and indoor environmental data in ger. Finally, during the 2019-2020 winter, eight ger and a bashin (a traditional Mongolian stick built house), the 2019-2020 Bayankhongor Ger, were evaluated in Bayankhongor, Mongolia. These ger were outfitted with a set of thermal improvements to evaluate their thermal performance. The goal was to demonstrate that these thermal inverventions could decrease energy use and make electric heating cost effective for wider deployment across Mongolia.

Description of the data and file structure
The data included covers several buildings:
- Penn Ger: One ger (or "yurt" in Russian) built on the Pennovation Research campus at the University of Pennsylvania
- 2018-2019 Test Ger: six unoccupied prototype ger built on a ranch near Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia with different thermal interventions to test their performance
- 2018-2019 Occupied Ger: five occupied ger in the ger districts north of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
- 2019-2020 Bayankhongor Ger: 8 ger and a Bashin (traditional Mongolian stick built house) in Bayankhongor, Mongolia
For each of these buildings thermal environmental data, air pollution, and energy use data were collected using Onset equipment and AirVisual pro air quality monitors.
Throughout this data set, there are several "NA" values in various columns. These represent time steps with missing data; descriptions for why this data was missing are below:
- Most commonly, this will be time before a particular data logger was launched or after it was turned off. These periods were included to keep a consistent time window for the data.
- Other "NA" that occurred in the middle of the data set represent power failures. These were particularly common in the Test_Ger_Complete_Data.csv, BKH_Complete_Data.csv, and Occupied_Ger_Complete_Data.csv files. That data was collected with monitoring equipment deployed in the field, sometimes in remote ares of Mongolia. As such, it was difficult to quickly address power failures. Additionally, some of the equipment was not able to record data when the air temperature was below -40C, which did occur a few times.
- Some of the sensors deployed on the Penn Ger were only used for short term tests, like tracer gas tests. For most of the data file, these sensor readings will read "NA" because they were not in use. However, the non "NA" values correspond to short term tests when these sensors were in use.

Description: data for 2018-2019 Test Ger, collected using Onset RX3000, Onset EG4115, and AirVisual Pro air quality monitors. Ger A was a standard ger, Ger B had a raised insulated floor, Ger C had a ceramic tile floor, Ger D had better insulation on the door and toono (circular oculus at the top of the ger), Ger E had several thermal improvements used in congress, and Ger F had an insulated skirt below the floor around the perimeter. The door on all of these ger faced south, as is typical in Mongolia.
Envelope temperature/relative humidity/dew point temperature readings were taken from air temperature/relative humidity sensors that were embedded in the envelope between layers of the felt insulation.
Mean radiant temperature readings were taken by globe thermometers suspended approximately 1.5 m from the ground.
Indoor air temperature/relative humidity/dew point temperature readings were taken from air temperature/relative humidity sensors that were hung approximately 15 cm from the ceiling, half way between the center of the roof and the wall, suspended from one of the uni (ceiling rafter poles) on the north side of the ger.

Description: General Data Set for Penn Ger from Onset RX3000, Onset UX120-014M, Onset UX120-018, Telaire 7001 (logged on a Onset U12), Pointelist system, and AirVisual Pro air quality monitor. The Penn ger was an unoccupied test ger built for testing experimental proceedures. It was built outside at the University of Pennsylvania's Pennovation research campus. The Penn Ger had only one layer of felt insulation for the winter (2-3 layers of felt insulation are typical in Mongolia). The door to the Penn Ger faced south, as is typical for ger in Mongolia.
Envelope temperature/relative humidity/dew point temperature readings were taken from air temperature/relative humidity sensors that were embedded in the envelope between layers of the felt insulation.

File: Occupied_Ger_Data_For_Publication.csv
Description: Data set for occupied ger from Onset RX3000 and AirVisual Pro air quality monitor. These were five occupied ger in the ger district north of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. They were selected at random and the participants were compensated for allowing thermal data to be collected from their homes. No personally identifyable or biometric data was collected as a part of this study.
Envelope temperature/relative humidity/dew point temperature readings were taken from air temperature/relative humidity sensors that were embedded in the envelope between layers of the felt insulation.

Description: Data set for Bayankhongor ger collected by Onset RX3000, Onset EG4115, and AirVisual Pro air quality monitors. In this data file are data from 8 ger and one bashin (typical Mongolia stick built house) located in the ger district of Bayankhongor, Mongolia. This data was used to evaluate ther thermal performance of the CHIPS package for ger. The CHIPS package was a series of thermal improvements that were developed by Professor Munkhbayar Bayun's research team at the Mongolian University of Science and Technology in collaboration with local producers in Bayankhongor, Mongolia, based on the insights learned from the 2018-2019 Test Ger. More details on the CHIPS package and that experiment can be found elsewhere:
Braham WW, Hakkarainen M, Buyan M, et al (2022) Cooking, Heating, Insulating Products and Services (CHIPS) for Mongolian ger: Reducing energy cost, and indoor air pollution. Energy for Sustainable Development 71:462–479. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.esd.2022.10.017
All of the buildings were within 0.5 km of the Bayankhongor Ger Innovation Center. The Bayankhongor Ger Innovation Center was set up as a collaboration between the Bayankhongor city government, UNICEF Mongolia, and the Ger of the 21st Century research team. A weather station was set up near the Bayankhongor Ger Innovation Center at ground level to collect ambient weather data for analyzing the ger in this project. One of the ger studied in this file was an unoccupied ger that was fitted with a CHIPS system called the "innovation ger" that was built at the Bayankhongor Ger Innovation Center. It was unoccupied to server as a reference for thermal performance, and it was also used for community engagement events to educate ger residents in Bayankhongor, Mongolia about the benefits of the CHIPS system and electric heating for ger. Additionally, there were seven occupied ger, 4 with Chips (Ger 1-4) and 3 without CHIPS (Ger 5-7). Comparing the energy use, indoor environments, indoor air quality, and thermal performance of these ger allowed us to quantify the benefit of the CHIPS system. Finally, the bashin (typical Mongolia stick built house) was evaluated as a point of comparison to understand the energy consumption and thermal characteristics of the ger relative to other common residential buildings in Mongolia. The bashin had 3 main rooms (bedroom, kitchen, and living room), a vestibule, and an attic. It was a slab on grade construction.
The ger residents who participated in this study were all volunteers, and they were compensated for their participation through subsidising their winter heating bills. No personally identifyable or biometric data was collected as a part of this study.
Envelope temperature/relative humidity/dew point temperature readings were taken from air temperature/relative humidity sensors that were embedded in the envelope between layers of the felt insulation.
