Zusammenfassung |
An easily constructed and installed instrument for measuring
colocated soil temperature and resistance profiles is described. Minimum disturbance to
the soil structure is achieved. The system indicates the melting front of permafrost at a
high Arctic field site and shows the effect and extent of summer rainfall events upon the
soil water profile. The system is capable of long-term recording of soil moisture profiles
at a frequency commensurate with eddy correlation measurements of the surface fluxes of
water vapour and carbon dioxide; it thus provides the information necessary for
understanding the processes involved in the soil-atmosphere exchange of water and carbon
dioxide. |
