Abstract

This resource is a repository of the 25- and 100-year return level design maps of 4-km gridded snow water equivalent (SWE) and 1- and 7-day snowmelt (plus precipitation) over the Contiguous United States (CONUS). The maps are developed using long-term observation-based 4-km gridded SWE developed by University of Arizona (UA SWE) incorporating the 1-km gridded national snow model product (SNOw Data Assimilation System; SNODAS). Please see Cho et al. (2020) in Water Resources Research (WRR) for full details.
