(2019) <p>The dataset includes two csv files, two xlsx files and one readme txt file with more detailed metadata:</p> <p>Refugiaclimate_loggerdata_all.csv: All logger temperature measurements including the double measurements from 2 loggers.</p> <p>Refugiaclimate_loggerdata_minmax: Daily minimum, maximum and mean temperature values per site.</p> <p>Refugiaclimate_field_protocols.xlsx: Fieldwork protocols including comments if a logger was overgrown or damaged and with site data on soil moisture and forest type etc.</p> <p>Refugiaclimate_coordinates.xlsx: Site coordinates.</p> <p>README.txt: Detailed metadata for each column in each table in the data files. <p>The loggers were placed ca 5 cm above ground in an inverted plastic cup that was taped onto a wooden stick in order to protect them from rain and direct sunlight. Loggers were brought out in from June to August 2015, read out in October 2015 (only ca. half of them), April 2016 and September 2016.</p> <p> The loggers measured temperature three times a day (ca. 00:00, 3:00, 6:00, and so on). At some places and during some periods there were two temperature-only loggers in one cup measuring simultaneausly. The temperature measurements of the two loggers in the same pair were sometimes very different (up to several degrees). When extracting daily minimum and maximum temperatures for each site, we picked the less extreme value from the two loggers. For the daily mean temperature we averaged over both loggers.</p> <p> Alternative contact person for this dataset: <a href="mailto:kristoffer.hylander@su.se">Kristoffer Hylander</a>, Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences, Stockholm University.</p> <p> In Greiser et al. (2019), the microclimate data of the locations hosting marginal populations were compared with <a href="https://doi.org/10.17043/greiser-2019-microclimate">another microclimate logger dataset</a> for the same region, in order to investigate if the populations occur in relatively colder places.
