Abstract

Meteorological data are being collected at several points within four intensive study areas in Barrow. These data assist in the calculation of the energy balance at the land surface and are also useful as inputs into modeling activities. (https://doi.org/10.5440/1164893).

Subsurface Temperature, Moisture, Thermal Conductivity and Heat Flux, Area A, B, C, and D, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, Ongoing from 2012

Dataset Romanovsky, Vladimir ; Cable, William ; Dolgikh, Kirill ; ...

Subsurface soil monitoring stations are located across each of the four NGEE Arctic, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, intensive study Areas: (A) low-centered polygons with well-defined troughs, (B) high-centered polygons, (C) flat-centered or transitional polygons, and (D) inundated low-centered polygons with no troughs. Two data products are being generated - both with high temporal (hourly) and spatial resolution (within polygon and with depth): (1) soil profile temperature measurements and (2) active layer and permafrost temperature and moisture measurements from instrumented soil pits. This data package currently contains seventy-nine .csv files, one .xlsx (with complimentary .csv file), and one .pdf. Data from Septembermore »« less
Ground Water Levels for NGEE Areas A, B, C and D, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, 2012-2014

Dataset Liljedahl, Anna ; Wilson, Cathy

Ice wedge polygonal tundra water levels were measured at a total of 45 locations representing polygon centers and troughs during three summers. Early season water levels, which were still affected by ice and snow, are represented by manual measurements only. Continuous (less than hourly) measurements followed through early fall (~mid-Sep). The data set contains inundation depth (cm), absolute water level and local ground surface elevation (masl). There are a total of 209 files in this dataset. The data were originally provided in Excel workbooks and these files have been preserved within the zip "Original_Files." The workbooks were also transformed andmore »« less
Frost Tables, NGEE Areas B, C and D, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, 2012-2014

Dataset Liljedahl, Anna

This dataset represents spatially intensive thaw depth surveys with individual point measurements spaced ~0.5 m apart. The three ~10x10m grids cover an ice wedge and a portion of its two neighboring polygons. The data contain thaw depth, frost table elevation, ground surface elevation, active layer depth and surface water inundation across three seasons (2012, 2013 and 2014) at Utqiagvik (Barrow) NGEE Areas B, C and D. There are a total of 69 extracted files separated by month, year, and area. The data were originally provided in excel workbooks, these files have been preserved within the zip "Original_Files."

Snow Depth and Density at End-of-Winter for NGEE Areas A, B, C and D, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, 2012-2014

Dataset Liljedahl, Anna ; Ulrich, Craig ; Wullshelger, Stan ; ...

End-of-winter snow depth and average snow density from area A, B, C and D, which include 1000's of point depth measurement located between ~20 and ~50 cm apart. The data was originally provided in excel workbooks, these files have been preserved within the zip Original_Files. The files were transformed for archiving with images pulled out into jpegs and data preserved as csv files. Some functions, features, and formatting was lost during the transformation. Missing data was defined with blank cells.

NGEE Arctic CO2, CH4 and Energy Eddy-Covariance (EC) Flux Tower Auxiliary Measurements, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, 2012 - Ongoing

Dataset Dengel, Sigrid ; Billesbach, Dave ; Torn, Margaret

Measurements began in September 2012 and are generally made throughout the snow-free growing season starting from April (pre-thawing) until November (freeze-up) when the instrumentation is taken down for maintenance and instrument calibration. CO2, CH4 and energy fluxes using the Eddy Covariance (EC) technique (Baldocchi 2003) and meteorological measurements are reported as 30-minute averages. The tower site is registered with AmeriFlux as US-NGB. See http://ameriflux.lbl.gov/sites/siteinfo/US-NGB for more information.Reported data include: (1) additional/extra meteorological and eddy covariance CO2, CH4 and energy flux data, (2) binned spectra for the three wind components, the sonic temperature and gas densities together with the binned cospectramore »« less
