Hourly ground subsidence, heave, and temperature data collected since 2023 at selected sites within the Crater Lake CALM grid on Deception Island, Antarctica. The data is part of the PERMATHERMAL monitoring network, which began in 2000 and is currently led by Dr. Miguel Ángel de Pablo of the Universidad de Alcalá.
Use Cases
- Modeling ground heave and subsidence cycles from hourly clinometry data.
- Correlating ground temperature fluctuations with surface deformation metrics.
- Analyzing seasonal active layer dynamics using temperature time-series from the CALM grid.
- Studying long-term permafrost temperature trends from the multi-year monitoring network.
Strengths
- Hourly temporal resolution for subsidence and temperature data.
- Data collection follows GCOS (Global Climate Observing System) principles.
- Network has been operational and expanding since the year 2000.
Limitations
- Specific row count, column details, and sample size are unknown.
- Geographic scope is limited to two Antarctic islands (Livingston and Deception).
- Data freshness and last update timestamp are not provided.
