Spatial and interannual patterns of winter N-factors near
A 150-km2 area near Barrow, Alaska, was monitored at hourly intervals between 2001 and 2005 using ~70 data loggers recording air and near-surface soil temperature as part of the Barrow Urban Heat Island Study. Data records for the winter period were used to calculate site-specific n-factors, the rat...
