Abstract

The SNOTEL data used for analyzing the impacts of wildfire on snow phenology measures (i.e. annual maximum SWE, date of annual maximum SWE, and melt-out date). The data were originally sourced from the Natural Resources Conservation (NRCS) Report Generator (https://wcc.sc.egov.usda.gov/reportGenerator/) and subsequently quality controlled for systematic data errors. All errors were verified with the NRCS staff before removal from the analysis dataset. The data includes the period of record (through 2019) at SNOTEL sites which were identified by NRCS staff as being impacted from wildfire. The study area includes western United States and Alaska. All burned SNOTEL sites include 'burned' in the data file name. The comparison sites used to identify climate differences (which were subsequently used to isolate the wildfire only impacts at the burned sites) are labeled 'comparison' in the file name.
