The automatic weather station AWS4 was installed in August 2015. It is located 240 meter above sea level on the southern slope of Skarvefjeld. The mast is located on a vegetation- covered plateau. The time stamp refer to West Greenland Standard Time (UTC-3). Soil moisture are measured in 5 and 20 cm´s depth. Find meteorological data from AWS4 under Meteorology (AWS4-Meteorology). Find soil temperature data under Soil (AWS4-SoilTemperature). The mast is equipped with a HOBO U30 station from Onset and data are logged every 30 minutes. 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. 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 ...
