MethodsSampling Description
Meteorological data collected to investigate how local climate controls leaf level carbon sequestration of mangroves and how climate controls terpene emission from red mangrove leaves. Basic meteorological data was collected in 1 minute averages. Data were collected as 1 minute averages on Campbell 21X data loggers.
Method Step
Description
Instruments installed at approximately 5 m height in a grass field near the Ranger Station dock.
Instrumentation
Campbell HMP45C hygristor Campbell CS105 barometric pressure sensor RM Young model 05103-5 propeller anemometer Weathertronics 6021 B tipping bucket rain guageQuality Control
Dataset is inspected by PI for QA/QC; standard validation checks for negative numbers, graphs to detect potential outliers .
