Soil moisture and temperature were recorded at the Anaktuvuk River burn area during the summers from 2010 to 2013. Six sensors were deployed and measured temperature on half-hourly intervals over the summer and into the fall depending on battery function. Sensors were place in a hexagonal shape around a central datalogger. Note that over time sensor depths changed due to frost heave and other environmental factors. All data contained should be treated as suspect where sensors may have been at surface. These sensors were removed August 20, 2013, no replacement sensors were installed.

Weather data file for Arctic Tundra LTER site at Toolik Lake. Only the sensors that are measured every 10 minutes and averaged every three hours are include, i.e. soil temperatures, lake temperature, lake depth, and evaporation pan depth and pan water temperature.
Daily weather summaries from Toolik Field Station Meteorological Station, Toolik Lake, Alaska. Included are daily averages and/or maximums and minimums of air, soil and lake temperature, wind speed, vapor pressure, and sum of global radiation and precipitation recorded near Toolik Lake.
Soil temperature data collected every 4 hours from a wet sedge site at the Arctic Tundra LTER site at Toolik Lake. Temperatures are measured every 3 minutes and averaged every 4 hours in control, nitrogen alone, phosphorus alone, nitrogen and phosphorus, and greenhouse experimental plots soil temperatures.
A multi-year DAILY weather file for the Arctic Tundra Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) site at Toolik Lake, AK. Included are daily averages and/or maximums and minimums of air, wind speed, soil temperature, and sum of global radiation and precipitation.
In 2008 Toolik Field Station took over maintenance of the main weather station. See http://toolik.alaska.edu/edc/index.php for current weather data. In addition to the main weather station the Arctic LTER maintains several stations that collect data on the experimental plots.
Soil temperature data from the 1989 LTER Moist Acidic Tussock (MAT89) Experimental plots. The logging station was installed in 1990 in block 2 of a four block experimental block design. The plots are located on a hillside near Toolik Lake (68 38' N, 149 36'W). Two replicates depth profiles (10, 20 ,40 centimeters) were installed in each block 2 experimental plots. Frost heaving has caused uncertain depths of measurements for many of the profiles. This data set contains only the control profiles from 2008 to 2020.
Soil temperatures at 2 depths, 5 and 10 cm, canopy temperatures and soil moisture at 10 cm were measured in a heath tundra Arctic Long Term Experimental Research (ARC-LTER) site at Toolik Lake Field Station, North slope, Alaska. Air temperature and relative humidity and global radiation were also measured but are presented in another dataset. Only control and nutrient addition (nitrogen plus phosphorus ) treatments plots were measured .
