Water temperature is measured on the bottom of the Zackenberg river, just west of the Zackenberg research station. The measurements were started in 1995. Initially the temperature was recorded every fifth hour until 1996 where the logging interval was changed to very second hour. Measurements were ended in 1998. Blank cells are missing data. Hydrology:Hydrology 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 active response to recommendations in international assessments such as ACIA and SWIPA; and is continuously being adapted based on AMAP and other international founded recommendations. Furthermore, the GeoBasis programme is directly involved in ...
