Title:

Eight Mile Lake Research Watershed: hourly meteorological data, 2004-2019

Alternate Identifier:

DOI PLACE HOLDER

Abstract:

The Carbon in Permafrost Experimental Heating Research (CiPEHR) project addresses the following questions: 1) Does ecosystem warming cause a net release of C from the ecosystem to the atmosphere?, 2) Does the decomposition of old C, that comprises the bulk of the soil C pool, influence ecosystem C loss?, and 3) How do winter and summer warming alone, and in combination, affect ecosystem C exchange? We are answering these questions using a combination of field and laboratory experiments to measure ecosystem carbon balance and radiocarbon isotope ratios at a warming experiment located in an upland tundra field site near Healy, Alaska in the foothills of the Alaska Range. This data set provides annual meterological data.

Description:

Experimental Design

The study site at the Eight Mile Lake (EML) watershed is located in the northern foothills of the Alaska Range. While permafrost thaw can sometimes result in water ponding, depending on local topography, this landscape consists largely of relatively well-drained uplands. The CiPEHR experiments were established in 2008 to complement research along a natural permafrost thaw gradient, at an adjacent site. At the permafrost-thaw gradient site permafrost temperature has been monitored annually in a 30-m-deep borehole since1985, before the permafrost started to thaw. There are two experimental warming treatments at the CiPEHR project: Winter warming (WW) increases soil temperature and ground thaw using snow fences; Summer warming (SW) increases growing season air temperature using open top chambers. The warming treatments are applied in a blocked split-plot design to evaluate the seperate and combined effects of winter and summer warming. Permafrost thaw induced by experimental soil (winter) warming has caused subsidence within the footprint of the experiment. Heterogeneous microtopography as a result of subsidence has caused variable moisture conditions with some plots periodically or continuously flooded during the thawed period and some plots remaining dry. This data set provides meterological data used at both the natural gradient and experimental warming sites.

Methods

Data were collected and recorded using an Onset HOBO (Bourne, MA) weather station.
