Description
Summary:This dataset is associated with the manuscript "Hydrometeorological measurements in peatland-dominated, discontinuous permafrost at Scotty Creek, Northwest Territories, Canada" published in Geoscience Data Journal (2019). This paper presents a hydrological and micrometeorological dataset collected at the Scotty Creek basin, Northwest Territories, Canada over the course of the 2015 water year (1 October 2014 to 30 September 2015). Micrometeorological data collected from four stations located in land cover types representative of those comprising the Scotty Creek basin including bog, channel fen, stable peat plateau and peat plateau undergoing rapid permafrost degradation and loss are presented. Monitored micrometeorological variables include incoming and outgoing shortwave and longwave radiation, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, precipitation (rain and snow) and snow depth. Deep ground temperatures (~ 1 to 10 m below the ground surface) from a channel fen as well as disturbed sites common to ...
