Statement

Methodology:

Microclimate data was recorded at Anchorage Island. Data was automatically collected and recorded on an hourly basis. 15 climatic variables were recorded: wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, relative humidity, solar irradiance, and temperature at 10 different depths.

Data collection:

Variables: wind speed, direction. Sensor: Young 05103. Sensor location: on mast at 3m.

Variables: air temperature, relative humidity. Sensor: Rotronic MP103A. Sensor location: on mast at 2m.

Variables: pyranometer. Sensor: Skye SKS1110. Sensor location: on mast at 3m.

Variables: temperature (all depths). Sensor: Thermistor.

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 Anchorage Island, 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.
