Here we provide an archive of precipitation estimates for seven locations on Greenland’s east and south coasts (used by Berdahl et. al., 2018) where the original measurements by the Danish Meteorological Office (Cappelen, Ed., 2014) has been bias-corrected for wind-induced under catch by applying the methodology of Yang et al. (1999). See more details in the method section.
