Alpine lysimeter station at Stoderzinken

Alpine lysimeter station at Stoderzinken

On Tuesday, October 19, 2021, the time had come again for the Department of Environmental Ecology to prepare the alpine lysimeter station at 1800m above sea level on the Stoderzinken for winter.

The task involved dismantling the fence, resealing the lysimeter, and filling the Pluvio automatic rain gauge with antifreeze.

Since there is often up to 2.50 meters of snow at this location in winter, some work had to be done.

Following this, two soil profiles for the forthcoming "Soil Guide for Grassland Soils" were discussed by all colleagues. It was examined whether the soil guide is also suitable for people who are not so familiar with the subject. Since this tool is specifically designed for farmers and practitioners, this was an important step in the final review.

Finally, we had a meal together, so that we could return to the office refreshed.
