SWE Climatologies

This data set comprises global, monthly satellite-derived snow water equivalent (SWE) climatologies from November 1978 through June 2003, with periodic updates released as resources permit. Global data are gridded to the Northern and Southern 25 km Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grids (EASE-Grids). Globa...

Northern Hemisphere data are enhanced with snow cover frequencies derived from the Northern Hemisphere EASE-Grid Weekly Snow Cover and Sea Ice Extent Version 2 data (these data were not produced for the Southern Hemisphere). These data are suitable for continental-scale time-series studies of snow cover and water equivalent. The data are binary data files and PNG images. Dataset Sea ice Arctic Data Center (via DataONE)
