This dataset consists of SnowNet Barrow site time series data. The Barrow site is located generally at 71 degrees 17 minutes North, 156 degrees 34 minutes West in what is called the Barrow Ecological Observatory east of Barrow, Alaska. The consists of a cluster of towers that carry instruments that report times series of things like temperature and wind speed, plus a network of field markers along which spot measurements of depth and snow water equivalent are made, and a site at long a snow fence that is used to measure the drift volume as a function of time.
