Abstract

Continuous Snow depth data are being collected at several points within four intensive study areas in Barrow. These data assist in the calculation of the energy balance at the land surface and are also useful as inputs into modeling activities.

Snow Depth and Density at End-of-Winter for NGEE Areas A, B, C and D, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska, 2012-2014

Dataset Liljedahl, Anna ; Ulrich, Craig ; Wullshelger, Stan ; ...

End-of-winter snow depth and average snow density from area A, B, C and D, which include 1000's of point depth measurement located between ~20 and ~50 cm apart. The data was originally provided in excel workbooks, these files have been preserved within the zip Original_Files. The files were transformed for archiving with images pulled out into jpegs and data preserved as csv files. Some functions, features, and formatting was lost during the transformation. Missing data was defined with blank cells.

Continuous snow depth, ground interface temperature and shallow soil temperature measurements from 2021-10-1 to 2022-6-14, Seward Peninsula, Alaska

Dataset Wang, Chen ; Dafflon, Baptiste ; Shirley, Ian ; ...

The dataset contains co-located snow depth, ground interface temperature, and shallow soil temperature measured at 98 discrete locations in a watershed located along the Nome-Teller road at mile marker 27 (referred to as T27), and at 53 discrete locations on a hillslope located along the Kougarok road at mile marker 64 (referred to as K64), in Seward Peninsula, Alaska. The dataset aims to understand the local heterogeneity of snow depth, snow temperature, and soil temperature dynamics and their interactions in a discontinuous permafrost region. The dataset is also valuable to train and evaluate machine learning and physical models to predictmore »« less
Intensive Site 1 Vegetation Plot Photos, Barrow, Alaska, 2012

Dataset Sloan, Victoria ; Norby, Richard

Photographs were taken on 24th June, 15th July and 17th August 2012, using a Canon Ixus 70 7.1 megapixel digital camera. Photographs were taken during the recording of weekly soil moisture, temperature and thaw depth measurements (Sloan et al., 2014), over a time period spanning approximately 6 hours on each day. Photographs were taken from positions where matted trail allowed access to vegetation plots. This dataset contains 14 files. Twelve of the files are zipped folders containing photos of specific plots during one of three days.

Active Layer and Moisture Measurements for Intensive Site 0 and 1, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska

Dataset Peterson, John ; Hubbard, Susan ; Dafflon, Baptiste ; ...

Thaw depth, relative dielectric permittivity, and soil temperature were collected along three transects within the Arctic polygonal tundra coastal region on the Barrow Environmental Observatory (BEO) near Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska. Measurements were acquired along the transect at 3 m intervals on 2011-09-25, 2011-09-26, 2012-07-18, 2012-09-30, 2014-07-02, 2014-08-15, and 2014-09-14 for the L2 transect (intensive site 0), which is about 470 m long. Similarly, measurements were collected every 3 m on 2012-09-30, 2013-09-30, 2014-07-02, 2014-08-14, and 2014-09-23, and every 1 m on 2013-09-30 along the AB transect (intensive site 1) which is about 500 m long.

End-of-Winter Snow Depth, Temperature, Density, and SWE Measurements at Teller Road Site, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2022

Dataset Bennett, Katrina ; Bolton, Robert ; Busey, Bob ; ...

Measurements of end-of-winter snow properties were collected at the NGEE Arctic Teller Road Site at mile marker 27 (TL_MM27) from March 28 to April 1, 2022. This dataset contains three *.csv data files of spatially distributed values of snow depth, snow water equivalent (SWE), and temperature at the snow surface and at the bottom of the snowpack. Data were collected toward the end of the winter season from late March to early April, when the snowpack would be near its maximum. A Snow-Hydro MagnaProbe (http://www.snowhydro.com/products/column2.html) was used to improve collection efficiency and enhance spatial coverage. A user guide included asmore »« less
