Item Cloquet Forestry Center automated weather station data for calendar year 2019(2020-09-23) University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry Center; kggill@umn.edu; Gill, Kyle G; University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry Center Forest Management and ResearchWeather station data for calendar year 2019 from the University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry Center automated weather station as collected by a Campbell Scientific CR1000 datalogger and various sensors. The automated weather station serves as a higher resolution dataset and backup for the manually-collected daily weather observations that are recorded and submitted to the National Weather Service. It also includes data from sensors not required by the NWS. Data for this dataset are collected by each sensor every 20 seconds and aggregated and recorded at the CR1000 in five minute intervals. They were downloaded and appended to the growing dataset manually by CFC staff weekly. The Direct Weather Download Protocol by CFC staff is followed to ensure datalogger data quality control steps are in place during manual data download, transfer, and archiving.Item Continuous Forest Inventory Plots for the UMN Cloquet Forestry Center(2020-07-30) UMN Cloquet Forestry Center; UMN Department of Forest Resources; lbj@umn.edu; Johnson, Lane; University of Minnesota Experimental Forests; University of Minnnesota, Department of Forest Resources, Interagency Information Cooperative; University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry CenterThe University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry Center is a field research and instructional station associated with the College of Food, Agricultural, and Natural Resources Sciences (CFANS). Continuous Forest Inventory data has been collected for the CFC since 1959. The network of permanent forest measurement plots consists of 406 1/7 acre plots with a subset of these plots re-measured up to seven times since establishment. The last re-measurement occurred Summer 2014. The majority of the CFI plots were geolocated with a Trimble GeoXT GNSS receiver in 2014 or 2015 to obtain sub-meter precision for each plot center. Plot locations are marked in the field with a tagged center post with painted tree numbers oriented to plot center. Eight plots without precision GNSS locations are indicated within the attribute table. One plot location is missing from this dataset as it could not be relocated in the field (Plot_ID = '620'). The most recent report on the UMN Cloquet Forestry Center CFI is available as 2016 Staff Paper No. 243 published through the UMN Department of Forest Resources and summarizes findings from the 2014 remeasurement.Item Wood density and decay dynamics of pentachlorophenol-treated wooden posts for four species in Minnesota, USA(2018-04-12) Russell, Matthew B; Patton, Stephanie R; Gill, Kyle G; russellm@umn.edu; Russell, Matthew BWood decay measurements collected from fence posts that were treated with a 5% oil solution of pentachlorophenol in 1942. Fence posts were installed at the University of Minnesota's Cloquet Forestry Center in Cloquet, MN.
