PermaSense observes physical parameters related to permafrost in steep high-alpine terrain over a period of multiple years. Live sensor network data is transmitted from the Matterhorn, Switzerland field site at 3450 m.
Currently, there are 15 nodes sampling at 2 min intervals and relaying the data back home in real time. Estimated lifetime is 3 years and the sensor network is built on TinyNodes, Dozer and TinyOS-1.x (still). Check out the live data here.
There is some background information in some recent slides available here.
