Metompkin Farm - Soil water content, Soil temperature, Electrical conductivity - Jul 2022-Jul 2024

This dataset includes volumetric water content (soil moisture, in cubic meter per cubic meter), soil temperature (degrees C) and soil electrical conductivity (mS/cm) measurements from four monitoring locations at the Virginia Agricultural site (Metompkin Farm) for the CZNet Coastal Cluster. Soil moisture, temperature and conductivity were measured continuously in the field at 15-minute intervals with METER Group TEROS 12 sensors and ZL6 dataloggers. All four locations have sensors measuring from both a shallow (0.1-0.2 m) and deep (0.2-0.3 m) depth interval. No correction was done to the reported values. Gaps in the record are indicated by blank values. This work was conducted on private property with the cooperation and trust of landowners and farm operators who have requested to remain anonymous. We have removed select coordinates and information that could be used to identify their operations.
