Soil Temperature and Moisture, Teller Road Mile Marker 27, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2016-2023

Daily averages of soil temperature and moisture measured once every hour at different heights located at Intensive Monitoring Stations at Teller Road Mile Marker 27 site. Data are retrieved annually from 2016-2023. This is the final update to this dataset: no changes to previous data files with the addition of 2022-2023 data files. Data files have header rows, NaN fields indicate invalid or missing data, and negative vertical offsets are above ground. UPDATED 2025-07: Seven new data files collected in 2022-2023 were added and no previously archived data were changed. This represents the final collection of data and text in the title was changed to reflect the defined timespan. Other files that were added: file-level metadata, a data dictionary, a site location map, and a data file inventory by year. The Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments: Arctic (NGEE Arctic), was a research effort to reduce uncertainty in Earth System Models by developing a predictive understanding of carbon-rich Arctic ecosystems and feedbacks to climate. NGEE Arctic was supported by the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research. The NGEE Arctic project had two field research sites: 1) located within the Arctic polygonal tundra coastal region on the Barrow Environmental Observatory (BEO) and the North Slope near Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska and 2) multiple areas on the discontinuous permafrost region of the Seward Peninsula north of Nome, Alaska. Through observations, experiments, and synthesis with existing datasets, NGEE Arctic provided an enhanced knowledge base for multi-scale modeling and contributed to improved process representation at global pan-Arctic scales within the Department of Energy's Earth system Model (the Energy Exascale Earth System Model, or E3SM), and specifically within the E3SM Land Model component (ELM).
