DatasetSaddle soil temperature and moisture, 2024 - ongoing.Morse, Jennifer F; LTER, Niwot RidgeIn rugged mountain terrain, microclimate variation may provide refugia that buffer the effects of climate change. We expect that complex terrain causes microsite variation in surface and subsurface temperature and soil moisture across hillslopes, thus mediating the extent to which organisms are exposed to warming conditions. Further, we expect that hillslope position will determine the microclimate that regulates ecological and biogeochemical responses.Environmental Data Initiative2025-02-2210632770https://doi.org/10.6073/pasta/a1ac88389c35f1e23c3c354b20754c5d2224439National Science Foundation
