The Hohe Tauern National Park (NPHT) and its region has been conducting specific monitoring programs for research purposes for years, all with links to eLTER. The platform includes a number of measuring facilities, which are all described in specific research sites each, i.e. LTER Hohe Tauern National Park (NPHT), Sonnblick Observatory, Oberes Stubachtal, Mullwitzkees, Venedigerkess and Pasterze. This LTSER platform picks up all possible monitoring acvities within the NPHT region and makes them available for eLTER. The platform is able to carry out and promote natural and social science work.

measurement of air temperature and relative humidity at location Rotmoos Valley glacier moraine 1858 (R-M1858; UUID: edb188cb-8e20-4d52-839e-bf0850011edc); sensor: HOBO U23 Pro v2 Temperature/Relative Humidity (https://www.onsetcomp.com/products/data-loggers/u23-001a) 2m above ground starting in August 2015

Minirhizotron(MR)-facilitities are used to investigate the processes in the soil-plant continuum. The unique setup of these facilities enables the recording of 4D information for multiple crop growing seasons under different field conditions and agricultural practices. The MR-facilities in Selhausen, Germany enable the performance of long-term studies of the soil-plant-continuum. The data set was acquired for the years 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020 and 2021 and the study is still on-going. The data set will be complemented each year. This repository contains relevant in-situ root system architectural traits like total root length, branch points, branching frequency, diameter (average, maximum, median), network area, perimeter, amount of root tips, volume and surface area. The sensors used to acquire root traits are cameras, taking images through horizontal transparent rhizotubes installed in several depths. The data in this repository correspond to the article "Investigating processes within the soil-plant continuum: Sub-soil data of minirhizotron facilities in Selhausen". Root data, corresponding to "Investigating processes within the soil-plant continuum: Sub-soil data of minirhizotron facilities in Selhausen".
