Description
Summary:Ten time lapse cameras (Brinno TLC200) were installed in the central Lena River Delta, Siberia, during the RU-Land_2018_Lena field campaign. The cameras were set up on Kurungnakh Island in April 2018 to shoot footage of the 2018 snow melt and shooting season. The measurement sites cover different landscape settings and thermo-erosional landforms, including flat tundra surface of the first terrace, flat surfaces of Yedoma Ice Complex uplands, steep thermo-erosional gullies, gentle slopes of thermo-erosional valleys and the river valley of the main outlet of Kurungnakh Island. A detailed overview of covered terrain is included in the event table.The mounting positions and monitored terrains reflect the different applications for time-lapse monitoring. These were:1. monitoring of snow distribution and melt in thermo-erosional landforms2. monitoring of vegetation dynamics in representative landscape unitsNine TLCs were mounted onto a 2 m profiled aluminum pole using a Netatmo Weather Station Mount. The pole ...
