Global, monthly satellite-derived snow water equivalent (SWE) climatologies from November 1978 through June 2003
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...
