Abstract

This resource is part of the larger SnowClim Dataset (https://www.hydroshare.org/resource/acc4f39ad6924a78811750043d59e5d0/) This resource contains present-day climate metrics. Climate metrics were created by downscaling outputs of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF; Rasmussen and Liu, 2017) for the present-day period (1 Oct 2000 to 30 Sep 2013) using a combination of local lapse rates and terrain corrections for solar radiation as described in Lute et al., (in prep). Climate metrics are available on a ~210 m grid for the western United States in both netCDF and GeoTiff formats.

Additional information is available in:
