| Summary: | The dataset comprises Soil Temperature and Deformation monitoring data gathered from a watershed situated along the Nome-Teller road at Mile 47 in Alaska. Its primary objective is to enhance comprehension of deformation mechanisms in permafrost environments by using 51 probes designed following Wielandt et al. (2022). The dataset comprises a description of Probe_ID, Location, start time, end time and probe length in the "ProbesLocations_StartEndDates.csv" file and the 51 data files encapsulated within "Data_files.zip". Each file in Data_files.zip is named as followed "ProbeId_StartMonth_EndMonth.csv". Within each file, the initial column denotes the timestamp in UTC, sfollowed by the sensor’s battery voltage and temperature and acceleration values (X, Y, Z) in subsequent columns. The data collection frequency is set at 30-minute intervals. This dataset forms an integral component of the Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments: Arctic (NGEE Arctic). NGEE Arctic, supported by the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research, strives to diminish uncertainties in Earth System Models by cultivating a predictive understanding of carbon-rich Arctic ecosystems and their climate feedbacks.
