Methods & Sampling

Temperature and light data were collected using the HOBO pendant data logger (Onset, MA, USA) fastened onto the substrate. The loggers were programmed to collect light (Lux) and temperature (˚C) every 10 minutes.

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO Processing:
- added conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
- renamed parameters to BCO-DMO standard
- added site, zone, lat and lon columns
- reformatted date from m/d/yyyy to yyyy-mm-dd

Version notes:
Version 1: original, 2016-6-15
Version 2: corrected site lat/lon; changed Gabgab to Gab_Gab, 2021-01-28
