Methods and protocols used in the collection of this data package
Description:

Experimental Design

Compare how soil moisture and temperature respond to fire in sites with and without permafrost.

Methods

Data were recorded with Meter ECH2O soil moisture sensor, Campbell Scientific C616s TDR soil moisture probes, and thermistors inserted into of clear, epoxy-filled tubes. Data was collected using Campbell Scientific dataloggers (10X or 1000).
