These data are provided in support of an NGEE Arctic publication (Dafflon et al., 2017) available at doi: 10.1002/2016JG003724 The dataset contains measurements obtained through 1) electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) to monitor soil properties, 2) pole-mounted optical cameras to monitor vegetation dynamics, and 3) point probes to measure soil temperature, and periodic manual measurements of thaw layer thickness, snow thickness and soil dielectric permittivity at a study site in the Barrow Environmental Observatory (BEO) in 2013 and 2014. The BEO is located within the Arctic coastal region, about 6 km from the ocean shore and the village of Barrow, AK. Dataset DOI:10.5440/1355348; https://doi.org/10.5440/1355348
