Soil water content raw data, 2015 - 2017, at Manaus, Brazil

This data package contains raw soil water content data from the NGEE Tropics K34 tower site on a plateau near Manaus, Brazil (BR-Ma2). Data was collected over the time period of 2015-02-15to 2017-03-16. The attached zip file contains data, related metadata excel files, and sensor manuals as PDF files. All sensors on a single Campbell CR3000 data logger were installed near ground on the K34 tower. Additional file level metadata is contained in the referenced dataset. This dataset replaces the soil water content data of two retired packages, http://dx.doi.org/10.15486/ngt/1507764 and http://dx.doi.org/10.15486/ngt/1507767 This dataset was originally published on the NGEE Tropics Archive and is being mirrored on ESS-DIVE for long-term archival Acknowledgement: This material is based upon work supported as part of the Next Generation Ecosystem Experiments-Tropics (NGEE-Tropics) funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Biological and Environmental Research through contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231 to LBNL, as part of DOE's Terrestrial Ecosystem Science Program.
