The SUMup dataset contains Arctic and Antarctic surface mass-balance field observations of snow density, accumulation on land ice, and snow depth on sea ice over an ~60 year time period. The goal of this dataset is to create an expandable, standardized dataset of field measurements of surface mass b...
