Abstract: 

Several meteorological parameters are being measured at Bisley since 1993. Correlations between elevation and stream-runoff and rainfall, elevation and air and soil temperature, and between trhoughfall and vegetation types have been found. These relationships are used inhydrologic and nutrient budgets as well as in environmental models .

Electronic sensors are placed at the field location to support other activities.

Methodology

Methods: 

A Campbell Scientific, Inc. 1989, PC208 datalogger with instruction manual software support collects the meteorological data. The datalogger is located in a 25 meters high tower located at 352 meters above sea level in Bisley. Sensors are programmed to collect daily data which is manually collected every week and downloaded into a USDA Forest Service -IITF computer. Data files are submitted to quality control procedures.

Instrumentation:
