Abstract

Three sampling sites (E16A, E16B, E16C) in Vågå (Oppland, Norway) were equipped with automatic data loggers (HOBO, 4-channel micro-stations) for permanent measurements of the micro-environmental conditions. Data loggers at each sampling site measured continuously (as hourly means) the following micro-environmental variables: air temperature [°C] at 15 cm height (hereafter referred to as T+15), soil temperature [°C] at 15 cm depth (hereafter T-15), and soil moisture [Vol.-%] at 15 cm depth (hereafter SM-15). The dataset contains values from 26th July - 06th September 2015

README: Arthropod diversity in the alpine tundra - microclimatic conditions


Three sampling sites (E16A=ridge, E16B=depression, E16C=south-facing slope) in Vg (Oppland, Norway) were equipped with automatic data loggers (HOBO, 4-channel micro-stations) for permanent measurements of the micro-environmental conditions. Data loggers at each sampling site measured continuously (as hourly means) the following micro-environmental variables: air temperature [C] at 15 cm height (hereafter referred to as T+15), soil temperature [C] at 15 cm depth (hereafter T-15), and soil moisture [Vol.-%] at 15 cm depth (hereafter SM-15). The dataset contains climatic values from 26th July - 06th September 2015.
Given is the exact location (d.dddd) as Lat./Lon. (WGS84) and elevation m a.s.l.
