Dataset specification

  • Title: GeoBasis Disko - Hydrology - RE-Multisensor
  • Description: Automatic monitoring of river water properties in Røde Elv (RE) has been carried out at the present position since 2015. A multisensor are deployed in the river early in the runoff season and removed late in the runoff season (before freeze-in). The station is running West Greenland Time (UTC-3). Data are logged either by 10 min, 15 min or 30 min interval. Hydrology:Hydrology GeoBasis Disko:The GeoBasis monitoring programme focuses on selected abiotic characteristics in order to describe the state of Greenlandic terrestrial environments and their potential feedback effects in a changing climate. Monitored plot data is up-scaled to a landscape level and is used to improve ecosystem models to be able to quantify these feedback mechanisms. The GeoBasis programme provides an active response to recommendations in international assessments such as ACIA and SWIPA; and is continuously being adapted based on AMAP and other international founded recommendations. Furthermore, the GeoBasis programme is directly involved in several international networks and research projects (e.g. the Circumpolar Active Layer Monitoring (CALM) programme, the Nordic Centre of Excellence DEFROST, the Danish Centre of Excellence CENPERM, the EU-projects PAGE21 and INTERACT, and the Arctic Research Centre at Aarhus University). The GeoBasis programme is divided into a number of sub-groups, including:
