MATERIALS AND METHODS Field Measurements In July 2004, we installed an automatic weather station (Onset HOBO®) in the Llanganuco tributary valley (3850 m.a.s.l.). Instrumentation specifications are available: http://www.onsetcomp.com/Products/Product_Pages/weatherstation/weather_station_logger.html. Hourly data are being collected in collaboration with the University of Innsbruck including soil moisture, soil temperature, air temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity, solar radiation, and precipitation. In June 2005, we installed a set of 9 temperature loggers (iButton Thermochron®) at different elevations ranging from 3469 to 4742 m above mean sea-level (Fig. 2). Each logger is powered by an internal battery (1 year lifetime) and was programmed to record hourly intervals of air temperature. The reported iButton resolution is 0.5°C, accuracy is ±1°C with a range of -40°C to +85°C (http://www.maxim-ic.com). Each iButton logger was placed inside a specially designed ¾” PVC shields that allowed us to embed the sensors in small trees and other inconspicuous locations (Figs. 4 and 5). Figure 4.
