Jornada Basin LTER Cross-scale Interactions Study (CSIS) Block 7 meteorological station: Daily average soil volumetric water content data: 2013 - ongoing

Daily Average of 30-minute Soil Volumetric Water Content data at 10 cm at CSIS Block-7. Collection of soil water content data at Jornada LTER Cross-scale Interactions Study (CSIS) blocks, New Mexico, supports the environmental monitoring objectives of the Jornada LTER monitoring program that look at plant-soil water dynamics. Soil volumetric water content is measured every 30 minutes at 10 cm depth at 3 locations at each of the 4 plots per block and averaged for the daily value. The locations in each plot are under bare soil, under perennial grass, and under shrub. Volumetric water content, bulk electrical conductivity, soil temperature, and bulk dielectric permittivity are recorded at an automated meteorological station installed at Jornada LTER CSIS Block-7 site. This is an ONGOING dataset.

新墨西哥州乔兰达长期生态研究（Jornada LTER）跨尺度交互研究（Cross-scale Interactions Study, CSIS）区块的土壤含水量观测数据集，旨在支撑该项目针对植物-土壤水动态的环境监测目标。其中，CSIS第7区块10厘米深度处的30分钟土壤体积含水量（soil volumetric water content）日均值数据为本数据集的核心观测项。每个区块共设置4个样地，每个样地内选取3个测点，分别位于裸地、多年生草本植被下方及灌丛下方；各测点每30分钟完成一次10厘米深度的土壤体积含水量、体积电导率（bulk electrical conductivity）、土壤温度（soil temperature）及体积极介电常数（bulk dielectric permittivity）的观测，并计算得到当日平均数值。相关自动观测由安装于乔兰达LTER CSIS第7区块站点的自动气象站（automated meteorological station）完成。本数据集为持续更新的长期观测数据集。
