Soil temperature is measured in 5, 10 and 30 cm adjacent to chamber 6 in a continous fen. The soil temperature sensors were installed in 2010 and record the temperature every fifth minute during the growing season, while methane fluxes are measured at the Automatic Chamber station. During winter when no fluxes are measured at the site the soil temperature is measured every hour. Blank cells are missing data. Data after 2011-01-01 exists, but is not made public in the database, due to drifting zero curtain values. Contact the GeoBasis Zackenberg manager in case of interest. Soil properties:Soil properties GeoBasis Zackenberg: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 ...
