Description
This data set provides weekly snow stake height measurements in Summit Station, Greenland, near the ice divide. The array comprises 121 snow stakes and helps understand snowfall processes and contextualizes snow accumulation, which is a major component of the region’s surface mass balance. As a long-term climate record, this data set provides valuable ground validation for ICESat-2 and other satellite and airborne missions.
