Abstract:
This data publication contains both observed and model data. The observed data, which include soil temperature, volumetric water content and pressure measurements, are a (2012) subset of a larger (2008-2014) soil/atmosphere experiment at Manitou Experimental Forest, Colorado. Soil temperature and water content are provided every 5 minutes and pressure provided at 1 hertz. The model data used, provided as MATLAB (*.mat) files, are included in this package as well as the MATLAB code and graphics subroutines for assessing different models of how atmospheric pressure, soil heating and moisture dynamics influence the exchange of trace gases between the atmosphere and the soil.
