SoilEmp is one of the three automatic soil stations in Kobbefjord. The station was established in 2008 and is placed on empetrum (crowberry) vegetation on the eastern side of the river 33 m.a.s.l. The station (CR1000 logger) is running West Greenlandic Winter time (WGWT). Soil temperatures (thermocouple, 105T) and soil heat flux (hukseflux, HFP01) are logged every 30 minutes, while the soil moisture (ML2x and SM300) is logged every six hours (see SoilEmp 6h). Soil Properties:Soil Properties GeoBasis Nuuk: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. Monitored plot data is up-scaled to a landscape level and is used to improve ecosystem models to be able to quantify these feedback mechanisms. The GeoBasis programme provides an active response to recommendations in international assessments such as ACIA and SWIPA; and is continuously being adapted ...
