Meteorology

Aims
  • monitor the state and change of the climate since it is the main driving force of the ecosystem
  • detect extreme periods and events stressing the trees
  • build a database for predicting ecosystem behaviour under various scenarios

Most of the variables are measured by automatic recording devices in an open place situated centrally at the IM site.

Variables
precipitation, snow cover, air temperature, soil temperature, wind direction, wind velocity, relative air humidity, global radiation
