The automatic weather station AWS2 was installed in August 2012 in Østerlien just east of Arctic Station. The station is located approximately 25 meter above sea level in a gentle south sloping area covered by low vegetation/dwarf shrubs. The time stamp refer to West Greenland Standard Time (UTC-3). Soil heat fluxes are measured in the upper soil (sensors are installed 5 cm below the soil surface. HeatFlux data before April 2015 are deleted due to a calibration error. Find more data from AWS2 under Soil (AWS2-GroundTemperatureP1 and P2, AWS2-Moisture, AWS2-SurfaceTemperature). Find meteorological data from AWS2 under Meteorology (AWS2-Meteorology). Find snow depth and snow temperature under Snow (AWS2-SnowDepth, AWS2-SnowTemperature). All data are logged by 30 minutes interval. Soil:Soil GeoBasis Disko:The GeoBasis monitoring programme focuses on selected abiotic characteristics in order to describe the state of Greenlandic terrestrial environments and their potential feedback effects in a changing climate. ...
