Summary: | This is the field measured snow depth data using an automatic snow depth probe (magnaprobe, Snow-Hydro LCC) in April 19 - May 7, 2022 in North Slope, Alaska. The data are in csv format (comma delimited text format with geographical coordinate, WGS 84, and UTM zone 5). The goal of this research project is to quantify the role of thermokarst lake drainage and drained thermokarst lake basin (DTLB) evolution in the arctic system. The joint research team (University of Alaska, Fairbanks, University of Wyoming, and Michigan Technological University) spent several days based in Utqiagvik (Western Coastal Plain) and rest of days in Teshekpuk Lake (Central Coastal Plain). During the travel, manual snow survey was conducted using the mangaprobe to quantify the snowdrift around thermokarst lakes and other land features as complementary to the geophysical and remote sensed snowpack characterizations. ... |
