SENSOR: 3.5m thermister shielded above with PVC.

GENERAL SITE CHARACTERISTICS:
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.

is over stream, susceptible to cold-air drainage issues.

GENERAL SITE CHARACTERISTICS:
Site located just upstream from gaging station GSMACK, over Mack Creek. Canopy continuous but thin

winter months; this section of Mack Creek watershed narrow and steep. Site no longer operational so
canopy image a best guess. Likely susceptible to cold-air drainage, since over a stream.
