Fracture Ventilation and Ground Temperature Data from the Stampa Rock Slope, Norway

Thomas Scheiber's dataset provides monitoring data for the unstable rock slope Stampa in Western Norway. It includes hourly measurements of fracture air temperature, rock surface temperature, ventilation direction and rate, radon concentration, and meteorological data from three weather stations. The data also contains radon and thoron concentrations from alpha track detector surveys and in-situ measurements.

Use Cases

• Modeling ground thermal regimes based on hourly fracture air and rock surface temperature data.
• Analyzing the influence of natural fracture ventilation on slope stability using ventilation direction and rate measurements.
• Correlating subsurface gas emissions with meteorological conditions using radon concentration and weather station data.
• Validating geophysical models of unstable rock slopes with in-situ radon and thoron concentration surveys.

Strengths

• Includes hourly aggregated measurements for temporal granularity.
• Integrates multiple data types: thermal, ventilation, gas concentration, and meteorological data.
• Data is sourced from a specific, named field site (Stampa, Western Norway).
• Uses measurements from three distinct weather stations (SN53680, SN53280, SN54110).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
