graf_stone_circles

Data format: File Geodatabase Feature Class

File or table name: graf_stone_circles

Coordinate system: Oblique Mercator

Theme keywords: Permafrost, solifluction

Abstract: In 1970, 1980 and 1988, stone circles have been measured. theyr position on solifluction areas changes according to the slope and to the presence of vegetation. The circles are marked with darker dolomite stones and the plots are marked with oak plugs.

FGDC and ESRI Metadata:

Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.
