Soil moisture from a 50+ meter transect and from 21 random points in a wet sedge meadow near Thule Air Base, Greenland. Plots consist of a collar for flux measurements 6" in diameter but moisture measurements were taken outside the plot to minimize disturbance. The transect spans a gradient from wet tundra to drier polar semi-desert. Campbell Scientific Hydrosense II with 12 cm probes. Data collected every few days between DOY 163 and DOY 222. Along the transect measurements were made every five meters. Three reps per plot or position on the transect..csv, comma-delimited text. Data columns are: day of year, plot, rep, volumetric water content (%).
