Abstract
This dataset includes volumetric water content (soil moisture, in cubic meter per cubic meter), soil temperature (degrees C) and soil electrical conductivity (mS/cm) measurements from four monitoring locations at the Maryland Agricultural site (Crisfield Farm) for the CZNet Coastal Cluster. Soil moisture, temperature and conductivity were measured continuously in the field at 15-minute intervals with METER Group TEROS 12 sensors and ZL6 dataloggers. All four locations have sensors measuring from both a shallow (0.1-0.2 m) and deep (0.2-0.3 m) depth interval. No correction was done to the reported values. Gaps in the record are indicated by blank values. This work was conducted on private property with the cooperation and trust of landowners and farm operators who have requested to remain anonymous. We have removed select coordinates and information that could be used to identify their operations.

File description(s):
Crisfield _WC_ST_SC_210714-240711.csv - Volumetric water content (WC), soil temperature (ST), and soil conductivity (SC) at monitoring sites. Each column header is the name of a monitoring site (site id) plus depth identifier (S for shallow depth interval or D for deep depth interval) plus the variable (WC, ST, or SC). Index column is date and time of measurement (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS) in Eastern Standard Time. File name includes the date range (start date-end date as YYMMDD) of the dataset.
CF_SMsites.csv - Monitoring location names (site ids), depth intervals, location coordinates, and general description.

METHOD INFORMATION
Method name: METER Group TEROS 12 sensor and ZL6 Datalogger
Method type: Instrument deployment
Method description: The TEROS 12 was set to record continuously at 15-minute intervals and record soil moisture, soil temperature, and electrical conductivity. Data were periodically downloaded from the ZL6 Datalogger without stopping the sensor. There may be gaps in the data Timestamps that occurred when the sensor malfunctioned.
Processing information: Data were directly downloaded from the ZL6 Datalogger using METER Group ZENTRA Utility software.
