TEAM Climate Monitoring Protocol 3.0

A standardized list of equipment and whether it should be acquired as part of Level 1, 2, or 3

siting is shown in Appendix A.1. Once all the equipment has been received it should be

registered by the Site Manager in the TEAM portal using the Site Management Tool (under

MyTEAM area: http://www.teamnetwork.org/en/network_members).

4.7 Climate Station Pre-installation Preparations

Once a suitable location for the climate station has been found, preparations need to be made to

the terrain before the infrastructure and the sensors are installed. These guidelines apply to the

main climate station (Level 1,2 & 4) as well as to a separate mini-station for the radiation sensor

if needed (Level 3).

Clear the terrain: Clear a small core area (60-65 m

-Level 1,2; 25-30 m

– Level 3) were the

climate station with all its instrumentation will be installed. This area could be circular or

rectangular, but most importantly, it needs to be devoid of all vegetation, with a very short layer

of grass or whichever the natural substrate is in the area; no rock, asphalt or cement.

Install a fence: It is highly recommended to install an open fence (or paling) around the

periphery of the core area (WMO 2008). This will keep animals and intruders out and protect the

integrity of the core area. In areas were elephants are present, the fence might have to be taller

and stronger.

4.7.1 Site Metadata Protocol

A detailed description of the location of the climate station should be compiled as part of the

regular metadata. We outline here a protocol to standardize the way this information is collected:

Equipment/supplies needed:

• Digital Camera with wide angle lens (30-35 mm)

• Laser Range finder

• Clinometer

• Climate Station Site Metadata form (Appendix A.2)

• GPS

1. Estimate the spatial location: Using an approved network GPS unit (e.g. Garmin

60Csx) take a GPS reading at the exact point where the station will be located using at

least 300 measurement points (decimal degrees, WGS42). Name the waypoint using the

following convention:

CL-Site Code-Station Number

For example the main climate station at Nam Kading would be named CL-NAK-1.

Transfer the GPX file from the Garmin to a computer and upload the data to the TEAM

portal (see Sampling Unit Placement Protocol:

http://www.teamnetwork.org/en/protocols)
