Data Release

Data set titled 'Soil temperature at GCE core monitoring sites in the winter of 2019-2020' was added to the GCE data catalog

Data set titled 'Soil temperature at GCE core monitoring sites in the winter of 2019-2020' was added to the GCE data catalog.  You can view the data set here: PLT-GCED-2407

Abstract: We deployed one hobo logger in each vegetation zone at each of the ten primary GCE monitoring sites, for a total of 20 loggers. The loggers were deployed at plot number 1 in each zone, to the "outside" (away from plot number 2), parallel in elevation with the middle of plot 1, buried 10 cm deep, lying horizontal, and tied with a string to the upper left hand (looking from the ocean towards the land) corner stake of the plot. Hobos were deployed during fall monitoring in October 2019, and set to start logging on October 15, 1 am, at 15 minute intervals, with the loggers set on Central Time (times were converted to UTC in post-processing). They were retrieved in April 2020 and files were trimmed to end on a standard date. Exact deployment and retrieval dates are on the attached adobe acrobat file.
