Collection description
Spring-water temperature was measured at 131 springs with elevation ranging between 1698 and 3039 m a.s.l. in the Val di Sole catchment (Eaastern Italian Alps). Measurements were taken from mid-August to mid-October, after the end of the snowmelt. Most springs have been measured once per year from 2018 to 2020, and a small group of them was also measured in 2021. Spring-water temperature was used to investigate the spatial distribution of mountain permafrost in the study area, and in particular its occurrence in rock glaciers classified as relict.

| Data collection method: | Measurements of spring-water temperature were carried out using a WTW Cond3310 (WTW GmbH, Weilheim, Germany) and a Testo 110 (Testo AG, Lenzkirch, Germany). These instruments have both 0.1°C resolution, but the WTW has higher accuracy (±0.1°C) compared to the Testo (±0.2°C), which was used for back-up/validation. Water temperature measurements were carried out between 8.00 a.m. and 5.00 p.m. (UTC+1), shading the spring from direct sunlight and avoiding probe contact with sediments, rocks, and vegetation. The calibration of the two instruments was checked at the beginning and at the end of the annual campaigns using an ice bath. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
