CANOPY: One deciduous tree overhead, otherwise open; DISCONTINUOUS, OPEN CANOPY TYPE. SURFACE: Water, rocks, moss.

Climate:

Stream site at confluence of Lookout and Mack Creeks. Site is on east edge of large open clearing, so is hemmed in by thick canopy wall in that direction. Directly above is deciduous tree which is bushy in summer (affects radiation regime) and bare in winter. Sensor recieves direct sun throughout year in early-mid afternoon. Due to location at confluence of two major streams, temperature regime likely strongly inlfluenced by cold-air drainage. (JWS 2001)
