Microclimate data from Jane Col, 2007-2016

Microclimate data collected hourly at Jane Col, for 12 climatic variables via automatic data loggers, 2007-2016. Data is not available across the entire temporal range for all variables. NERC funded under the British Antarctic Survey National Capability programme, Polar Science for Planet Earth.

Statement

Methodology:

Microclimate data was recorded at Jane Col. Data was automatically collected and recorded on an hourly basis. 12 climatic variables were recorded: wind speed, wind direction, air pressure, air temperature, relative humidity, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), UVA, UVB, temperature at four different depths.

Data collection:

Logger make: Campbell CR1000, serial no. 3940.

Variables: wind speed, wind direction. Sensor: Young 05103. Sensor serial no.:72128.

Variable: air pressure. Sensor: Vaisala.

Variables: temperature (all depths). Sensor: Campbell 107 x 4. Sensor serial no.: 13125/5,6,7 & 10.

Variable: relative humidity. Sensor: Campbell CS215. Sensor serial no.: E1611.

Variable: photosynthetically active radiation. Sensor: Skye SKP215. Sensor serial no.: 0892 5756.

Variable: UVA. Sensor: Delta-T UV-3pA. Sensor serial no.: 124.

Variable: UVB. Sensor: Skye SKU430. Sensor serial no.: 0702 24526.

Data quality:

Missing values are included where data was not recorded, or where values indicating malfunctioning equipment have been removed. No extensive quality control or verification has been undertaken.

Due to the harsh conditions in Jane Col, data has not been recorded continually across the period. The exact locations of sensors within the soil does change over time due to environmental conditions, so depths recorded are a guide.
