Wolverton basin in Sequoia National Park is instrumented with four
instrument clusters (site 1 through site 4) and two meteorological
stations (Panther met and Wolverton met). Soil moisture and temperature,
snow depth, solar radiation and meteorological data (air temperature,
relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction and precipitation) are
measured across the network. Snow depth is measured in the open, at the
drip edge and under tree canopies. Soil moisture and temperature are
measured at 10, 30, 60 and 90 cm depths. Raw data have been processed to
level 1 (QA/QC) data. Time period: wy2007 through wy2016.
Soil volumetric water content (VWC) and soil temperature are measured
using Campbell Scientific CS 616 Water Content Reflectometer and 107
temperature probe at depths of 10, 30 and 60 cm below the mineral soil
surface (http://www.campbellsci.com/documents/manuals/). Soil water matric
potential (MPS) is measured using Decagon Devices MPS-1 dielectrical water
potential sensor at depths of 10 30 and 60 cm below the mineral soil
surface ( http://www.decagon.com/products/discontinued-products/mps... ).
Distance to snow/soil surface and air temperature are measured with Judd
Communications ultrasonic depth sensor, using analog control (
http://www.juddcom.com/ ). Total solar radiation is measured using LI-COR
Environmental LI-200 Pyranometer (
http://www.licor.com/env/products/light/pyranometer.jsp ). Net radiation
is measured using Kipp & Zonen NR Lite net radiometer
(http://www.kippzonen.com/?product/3151/NR+Lite2.aspx ). Relative humidity
and air temperature are measured using Campbell Scientific HMP45C probe (
http://www.campbellsci.com/documents/manuals/hmp45c.pdf ). Wind speed and
direction is measured using Campbell Scientific R.M. Young 05103-5 Wind
Monitor ( http://www.campbellsci.com/documents/manuals/05103.pdf ).
Rainfall is measured using Campbell Scientific TE525 Tipping Bucket Rain
Gage (http://www.campbellsci.com/documents/manuals/te525.pdf ). Data
recorded at 60-minute intervals, with control and storage on Campbell
Scientific CR1000 datalogger, using AM16/32B multiplexer (
http://www.campbellsci.com ). Program for data acquisition are located on
UC Merced-SNRI digital library (
