Description
Summary:This data set includes soil moisture, temperature, and electrical conductivity data from 2 meter x 2 meter plots that were experimentally burned in the summer of 2012. The study site is located near the Northeast Science Station, in Cherskii, Russia. Data were collected using Decagon GS-3 probes and an EM50 data logger, at hourly resolution over the entire study period. Measurements are currently ongoing and will be updated annually. Varying fuel loads were used to achieve a range of burn severities. Contact Heather Alexander at the University of Texas at Brownsville for more information on the experimental treatment.
