Abstract

STUDY: These sites monitor environmental conditions in an effort to understand forest hydrology at Sagehen Experimental Forest.

SAGEHEN T1 HILL1 (SH-T1-H1-SMST-SD): This site is at the foot of a hillslope rising above the valley bottom. It is paired with Hill2, which is further upslope.
This site is paired with meteorological information from Tower 1, operated by UC Berkeley and located about 100 m away. The site is also paired with sap flow measurements that are publicly available. The Subcanopy site is located approximately 300 m away in the riparian area. There are also AmeriFlux-operated flux towers in this area.

SAGEHEN T1 HILL2 (SH-T1-H2-SMST-SD): This site is about 100 m up a rising hillslope above the valley bottom. It is paired with Hill1, which is at the foot of the hillslope.
This site is paired with meteorological information from Tower 1, operated by UC Berkeley and located about 200 m away. The site is also paired with sap flow measurements that are publicly available. The Subcanopy site is located approximately 400 m away in the riparian area. There are also AmeriFlux-operated flux towers in this area.

SAGEHEN T1 SUBCANOPY SAP (SH-T1-SS-SMST): This site is in a riparian area near a river. It is paired with Subcanopy Open, which is located in a small tree gap downstream.

SAGEHEN T1 SUBCANOPY OPEN (SH-T1-SO-SMST): This site is in a riparian area near a river. It is paired with Subcanopy Sap, which is located under the canopy upstream.

SAGEHEN T3 CLUSTER (SH-T3-C-SMST): This site is located in a large forest gap near a road intersection close to the valley bottom.
This site is paired with meteorological information from Tower 3, operated by UC Berkeley and located about 20 m away. The site is also paired with sap flow measurements that are publicly available.

SAGEHEN T4 NORTH (SH-T4N-SMST): This site is on the north face of the ridge. It is paired with Tower 4 South on the south-facing side of the ridge.
This site is paired with meteorological information from Tower 4, operated by UC Berkeley and located about 250 m away. The site is also paired with sap flow measurements that are publicly available. Tower 4 South is located approximately 500 m away.

SAGEHEN T4 SOUTH (SH-T4S-SMST): This site is on the south face of the ridge. It is paired with Tower 4 North on the north-facing side of the ridge.
This site is paired with meteorological information from Tower 4, operated by UC Berkeley and located about 250 m away. The site is also paired with sap flow measurements that are publicly available. Tower 4 North is located approximately 500 m away.
