GeoBasis Zackenberg - Soil properties - M2

M2 is one of six meteorological stations in the Zackenberg and Store Sødal Valley. Data from the station is found under meteorology (wind, temperature and relative humidity, short wave and long wave radiation, as well as NDVI), soil properties (soil moisture and soil heat flux) and snow properties (snow depth).
M2 is located on a south facing slope in side the ZEROCALM-2 grid, in which active layer is monitored. The vegetation underneath the mast is dominated by salix arctica.
Measurements at this station were initiated on the 5th of August 2003.
At M2 data is recorded every half hour, except for snow depth and soil moisture which was recorded every 6th hour before August 2012.
Between 2003-2012 data was recorded using a CR10x campbell scientific data logger. In August 2012 this was changed to a CR1000 data logger.
As the station is situated on a southfacing slope (dominating leeward side during winter in Zackenberg), the station has been covered in snow during several winters, resulting in low power and missing data.
Soil temperature is also measured at the station, but data not published in the database, due to problems with propagating datalogger temperature.

Soil properties:Soil properties GeoBasis Zackenberg:The GeoBasis monitoring programme focuses on selected abiotic characteristics in order to describe the state of Greenlandic terrestrial environments and their potential feedback effects in a changing climate. Monitored plot data is up-scaled to a landscape level and is used to improve ecosystem models to be able to quantify these feedback mechanisms. The GeoBasis programme provides an active response to recommendations in international assessments such as ACIA and SWIPA; and is continuously being adapted based on AMAP and other international founded recommendations. Furthermore, the GeoBasis programme is directly involved in several international networks and research projects (e.g. the Circumpolar Active Layer Monitoring (CALM) programme, the Nordic Centre of Excellence DEFROST, the Danish Centre of Excellence CENPERM, the EU-projects PAGE21 and INTERACT, and the Arctic Research Centre at Aarhus University). The GeoBasis programme is divided into a number of sub-groups, including:

M2是扎科内尔（Zackenberg）与Store Sødal谷的六个气象站之一。该站的观测数据涵盖气象学领域（风速、气温、相对湿度、短波与长波辐射，以及归一化差异植被指数（NDVI））、土壤属性（土壤湿度与土壤热通量）及积雪属性（雪深）。
M2坐落于ZEROCALM-2网格内的南向坡地，该网格会对活动层开展长期监测。铁塔下方的原生植被以北极柳（Salix arctica）为优势种。
该站的观测工作于2003年8月5日正式启动。
M2的观测数据每半小时记录一次，但雪深与土壤湿度数据在2012年8月前采用每6小时一次的采集频率。
2003年至2012年间，观测数据通过CR10x型坎贝尔科学（Campbell Scientific）数据采集器存储记录；2012年8月，该设备升级更换为CR1000型数据采集器。
由于该站位于南向坡地（冬季为扎科内尔地区的主要背风侧），多个冬季周期内该站会被积雪完全覆盖，导致供电不足并出现大量数据缺失的情况。
该站同时开展土壤温度观测，但因数据采集器的温度传输链路存在故障，相关土壤温度数据未在数据库中公开。如有获取需求，请联系扎科内尔地理基础项目负责人。

GeoBasis监测计划聚焦于选定的非生物环境特征，旨在描述格陵兰陆地生态系统的现状，及其在气候变化背景下的潜在反馈效应。监测样地的实地数据被向上尺度推演至景观尺度，用于优化生态系统模型，以实现对上述反馈机制的量化评估。该计划积极响应北极气候影响评估（ACIA）、雪冰覆盖评估计划（SWIPA）等国际评估报告中的研究建议，并基于北极监测与评估计划（AMAP）及其他国际倡议的指导持续迭代调整。此外，GeoBasis计划直接参与多个国际学术网络与科研项目，例如：环北极活动层监测（CALM）计划、北欧卓越中心DEFROST、丹麦卓越中心CENPERM、欧盟项目PAGE21与INTERACT，以及奥胡斯大学（Aarhus University）北极研究中心。GeoBasis计划下设多个子项目组，涵盖：
