Soil water content and soil water potentials from the intensive monitoring plot (IP2) at LTER Zöbelboden, AT. Half-hourly soil moisture data are available from May 2018 to December 2020.

Six weighing lysimeters (1.5 m height; 1.0 m in diameter) with a soil surface area of 1.0 m² were installed on ground surface level at the Experimental Field Station Dedelow of the Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF). Water retention time series from 2012-2014 were obtained from tensiometer/MPS-1 sensors and TDR data measured in 10, 30, and 50 cm depths of six soil monoliths of lysimeters extracted from two differently managed field sites (lysimeters 1, 3, 5 from site Dedelow, lysimeters 2, 4, 6 from site Holzendorf).
