Abstract

A three-level hydro-climatological network for data monitoring was established in 1994. The networks at each level are nested to form a coordinated program of data acquisition and measurement. A future vision of linking the benchmark meteorological stations with regional weather stations to expand the future scope of studies was also considered in designing this network. The first-level in this top-down approach consists of Benchmark Meteorological Stations (BMS) and Benchmark Stream Stations. The BMS are designed to represent the environment across the Andrews. These stations are intended to provide complete, long-term, high temporal resolution, meso-scale hydroclimatological data. The location of the BMS network is based on factors such as elevation, aspect, vegetation gradients, and accessibility. Collected meteorological parameters are generally standardized across the BMS as well as methods and instrumentation. Secondary Meteorological Stations also follow standardized methods and serve similar purposes but are somewhat limited in meteorological parameters collected. The Primary Meteorological Station (PRIMET), Central Meteorological Station (CENMET), Upper Lookout Meteorological Station (UPLMET), and Vanilla Leaf Meteorological Station (VANMET) are the four Benchmark Stations, Climatic Station at Watershed 2 (CS2MET), and the Hi-15 Meteorological Station (H15MET) are Secondary Stations. In 2006, an additional Secondary Station was added at Watershed 7 (WS7MET) These solar radiation parameters were previously part of database code MS001, but were separated out into their own database in 2024 and the entities and attributes were reorganized in 2025 into shortwave, longwave, net radiation and PAR. The shortwave and longwave entities include both incoming and outgoing radiation where measured (see probe_code and method_code).

Study Area Description
  • Long-Term Ecological Research
    The Andrews Forest is situated in the western Cascade Range of Oregon, and covers the entire 15,800-acre (6400-ha) drainage basin of Lookout Creek. Elevation ranges from 1350 to 5340 feet (410 to 1630 m). Broadly representative of the rugged mountainous landscape of the Pacific Northwest, the Andrews Forest contains excellent examples of the region's conifer forests and associated wildlife and stream ecosystems. These forests are among the tallest and most productive in the world, with tree heights of often greater than 250 ft (75 m). Streams are steep, cold and clean, providing habitat for numerous aquatic organisms.

Methods

Method Steps

Processing Procedure - MS001: Early PRIMET data
  • A description of the early processing history and instrumentation for the Primary Meteorological Station (PRIMET), 1972-1989, is posted here:
  • http://andrewsforest.oregonstate.edu/data/studies/ms01/ms001_primet_1972_1989.pdf
Field Methods - MS050: Solar PAR
  • View climate data collection methods used by each unique probe by following the links below. Filter results by database code, site code, parameter, probe, climate station, and date range. A general text search is also available.
  • https://andlter.forestry.oregonstate.edu/MethodCode/View_History.aspx
  • https://hjandrews.shinyapps.io/im_methods_history/
  • Mean PAR is measured at Central Meteorological Station (CENMET). Output schedule: 5-minute intervals starting April 2015; prior to that, 15-minute intervals starting in 1998.
  • Maximum solar radiation is based on instantaneous measurements in micromoles per second per square meter. The time of maximum value is accurate to the minute.
  • Solar radiation sensors commonly read slightly negative at night (-1 to -7 µmol/s/m). Negative nighttime readings are changed to 0 in the dataset. Because daily averages include these negative values before correction, a minor error exists in the daily values.

Instrumentation:

  • LICOR PAR (photosynthetically active radiation) quantum sensor, Campbell Scientific model LI190SB. The output of the PAR sensor is a daily average, daily maximum and 15 minute averages, and the units are in micromoles/sec/meter<superscript>2</superscript>.
Field Methods - MS050: Shortwave radiation
  • View climate data collection methods used over time at select stations by following the link below. Filter results by parameter, climate station, date range, database code, site code, and probe. A general text search is also available.
  • https://hjandrews.shinyapps.io/im_methods_history/
  • Total incoming solar radiation calculated with 5-minute output starting in 2014 or 2015 (depending on site). Prior to that, 15-minute output starting in 1994.
  • Pyranometers record mean downward and upward shortwave radiation. Output schedule: 10-minute intervals beginning February 16, 2007; changed to 15 minutes on September 24, 2012; changed to 5 minutes on April 30, 2015. These two pyranometers were removed on September 9, 2022 and replaced with a single upward facing pyranometer (CS320)
  • NR01 net radiometers installed in 2013 to record upward and downward shortwave radiation components.
  • Method codes in the dataset differentiate between total incoming and outgoing solar radiation measurements.
  • Pre-2015 data was output daily in megajoules per m, along with maximum daily rate of incoming solar radiation (watts per m) and time of maximum (accurate to the minute). Since 2015, daily mean downward and upward shortwave radiation data are post-calculated and reported in watts per m.
  • Solar radiation measurement at PRIMET began in 1972 with hourly output until 1994. Much of the incoming solar radiation data from the 1970s is estimated. Original data output in langleys has been converted to standard units.

Instrumentation:

  • Kipp and Zonnen solar radiation pyranometer with thermopile type sensor, model CM-6B with Campbell Scientific data logger located on a 1 meter high platform at Primary Met and on top of shelters at other stations. An earlier model used was the CM-5 with an Instrument Interface M4 data logger. Historical method: The signal is recorded continuously from the Lintronic dome solarimeter on a 30-day Rustrak strip chart scaled from 0 to 2.0 cal/cm<superscript>2</superscript>/min with a resolution of 0.1 cal/cm<superscript>2</superscript>/min. Data loggers used were the Interface Instrument M-2 or M-3. This historical solar sensor was often unreliable. Shortwave incoming solar radiation is measured by a model Campbell Scientific CS320 pyranometer, Campbell Scientific data logger at various height; mean, total solar radiation is output every 5 minutes. Beginning October 1, 2019, total solar radiation is calculated from the 5min mean values using equation: MJ/m2 = val_in_watts * number_seconds_in_period / 1000000'. Prior to that date, total solar radiation was calculated on-logger.
Processing Procedures - MS001
  • Sensor data streams via WiFi into file servers located at Oregon State University College of Forestry. The files are run through GCE Data Toolbox, which is a comprehensive software framework for metadata-based analysis, quality control, transformation and management of ecological data sets. https://gce-lter.marsci.uga.edu/public/im/tools/data_toolbox.htm. The files are provided on the provisional data page. For processing into final formats, these files are processed through a Python script called Fastbridge where data visualization is possible and QC/QA validation and report logs occur. Data ranges are checked, specific statistical analysis are performed, data are transformed into final FSDB format.
Field Methods - MS050: Net radiation
  • View the climate data collection methods used over time at select stations by following the link below. You can filter results by parameter, climate station, and date range, or use the general text search.
  • https://hjandrews.shinyapps.io/im_methods_history/
  • Radiation measurements are collected at multiple stations:
  • NR01 4-component sensors record mean downward and upward shortwave and longwave radiation, plus total net radiation. Data output every 5 minutes starting in 2013.
  • Daily mean values for all radiation components are post-calculated and reported in watts per m.

Instrumentation:

  • Net radiation is calculated from components measured by a heated (dewpoint trigger) Hukseflux NR01, 4-component net radiation sensor (upward and downward facing sensors measure both longwave and shortwave solar radiation components and sensor body temperature) with a Campbell Scientific data logger attached to the tower at 600 cm height; values are output every 5 minutes
Quality Assurance - Fire effects on data
  • The HJ Andrews Experimental Forest was affected by wildfires in 2020, 2023, and, to a lesser degree, 2024. Documentation is being developed that will describe the potential impacts on long-term records, provide the date ranges of direct impact, and describe specific site or data impacts. The use of the BURNED event_code was expanded to include wildfire, and a code was added to each relevant attribute flag to indicate when fire effects are visible in the data (P=Pyro).
Field Methods - MS050: Longwave radiation
  • View climate data collection methods used over time at select stations by following the link below. Filter results by parameter, climate station, date range, database code, sitecode, and probe. A general text search is also available.
  • https://hjandrews.shinyapps.io/im_methods_history/
  • NR01 net radiometers were installed at PRIMET and VANMET benchmark stations in 2013, recording mean upward and downward longwave radiation components. Total longwave radiation measurements began in 2018.
  • Method codes in the dataset differentiate between mean and total values for incoming and outgoing solar radiation. Since 2015, daily mean downward and upward longwave radiation data are post-calculated and reported in watts per m.

Instrumentation:

  • Longwave incoming solar radiation is measured by a heated (dewpoint trigger) Hukseflux NR01, 4-component net radiation sensor (upward and downward facing sensors measure both longwave and shortwave solar radiation components and sensor temperature) with a Campbell Scientific data logger attached to the tower at 600 cm height; values are output every 5 minutes (see Method NRT015)

Sampling

Study Extent
  • Temperature and rainfall in the Andrews Experimental Forest are are typical of a maritime climate with wet, relatively mild winters and dry, cool summers. Humidity is generally high through winter months, and maximum daily relative humidity approaches 100 percent at night throughout the year. Minimum summer humidities generally hover around 30-50 percent. Temperature extremes range from near 0 degrees F in unusually cold winters to over 100 degrees for brief periods almost every summer. The range in mean annual temperature (1972-2002) is 7.1-10.5 degrees C at a low elevation site (PRIMET). Precipitation varies with elevation - long-term annual average at low elevation (450 m) is 2200 mm, and at high elevation (1200m) is 2600 mm.
  • Sampling frequency: continuous
Sampling Description
  • Much of the early climatological measurements on the Andrews Forest were associated with the investigation of the initial small watersheds experiment (Watersheds 1, 2, 3). The Climatic Station on WS 2 was installed in 1956 to measure precipitation and a hygrothermograph was added in 1958. The High-15 station was established to measure precipitation in 1964 in conjunction with small watersheds 6, 7, 8, and has evolved into a secondary meteorological station. A more general set of modeling needs led to the installation of the Primary Meteorological Station in 1972 to characterize the meso-scale environment. Originally, solar radiation, air temperature, dew point temperature, and windspeed were collected. Along with precipitation from the climatic station on WS 2, these were the primary climatic variables needed for the models predicting the rates at which materials accumulate or move through ecosystems (Waring et al., 1978). Significant improvements to the station were made in 1975, 1979, and 1988, as the station evolved from chart recorders to state-of-the-art digital data loggers (Bierlmaier and McKee, 1989). The Vanilla Leaf Met Station was installed in 1987. The primary intent was to provide micro- meteorological data for a study of seedling survival following clearcut and shelterwood logging at high elevation. Ultimately, the shelterwood site was discontinued and the clearcut site has evolved as a primary high elevation meteorological station.
  • Four Benchmark Meteorological Stations (BMS) and two second-level stations are included in the MS001 database. The Primary Meteorological and Vanilla Leaf Meteorological BMS are retained. Two new BMS are installed. In 1994, the Upper Lookout Meteorological Station was established at high elevation (4200 ft, ENE aspect) on clearcut L708 in the SE Andrews. In 1995 the Central Meteorological BMS was established at a centrally located site on clearcut L351 (3300 ft, WSW aspect) in the east-central Andrews. A GIS analysis of elevation and aspect indicated the average elevation (3170 ft., 966 m) and average aspect (267 degrees) of the Andrews Forest, and the Central Met Station was located to represent these general averages. Modifications are made to the Primary and Vanilla Leaf Stations to standardize measured variables, temporal resolution, methods, and instrumention across all BMS. Sites will be cleared and required openings maintained following standards of the National Weather Service, the LTER network, and where appropriate, the NADP network. Telemetering of all BMS was completed in 1996. Second-level stations (SLS) at the Hi-15 and WS 2 Climatic Station will continue to be maintained for measurement of precipitation, temperature, and other data to maintain continuity of historical records. These sites also follow established procedural standards.
  • The BMS include meteorological measurement of air and soil temperature, relative humidity, calculated dew point temperature and vapor pressure deficit, wind speed and direction measurement, incoming solar radiation, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), soil moisture, snow melt, and snow moisture and depth.

Description

  • An update history is logged and maintained with each new version of every dataset.

Change History

  • Version1 (1000-01-01)
    Study code and preliminary metadata established
  • Version2 (1000-01-01)
    Solar data entities were migrated out of MS001. This is a version of the data as it was in MS001, except with new dbcode assigned. New CSV files created.
  • Version3 (1000-01-01)
    All radiation entities were updated using modernized QC rules to match historic checks in addition using the new FastBridge workflow. New QC checks were included: implementation of a clear sky envelope per site, and an automated check for lens obstruction.
  • Version4 (1000-01-01)
    Replaced solar_mean and solar_tot null values flagged as ‘A’ in MS05015 WY2023. Review the field methods and revise since the MS050 entities were modified.
