Dataset specification
- Title: BioBasis Zackenberg - Abiotics - Soil moisture
- Description: Data on soil moisture in permanent plant and arthropod plots. For further details, please refer to the newest BioBasis manual available at the website. Abiotics:Abiotics BioBasis Zackenberg:The BioBasis programme monitors the dynamics of organisms and biological processes in the terrestrial and limnic ecosystems at Zackenberg and Nuuk. The BioBasis programme plays a central role in the development and implementation of the Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Programme (CBMP) http://www.caff.is/monitoring across the Arctic.
