Calculated monthly moisture sources for Greenland, calculated using Reading Offline Trajectory Model (ROTRAJ) and the ERA-Interim reanalysis. Values are scaled by the precipitation estimate as calculated by ERA-Interim to represent precipitable water. Data available between 1987 and 2016. Results are available for various boundary layer height (BLH) definitions (subscripts c and m also valid for the other heights in the dataset): 1500m constant BLH of 1500 meters 2500c constant BLH of 2500 meters, unless convection is present. In case of convection at source location, NBLH is used for that point BLH boundary layer height as defined in ERA-Interim NBLH no boundary layer height Also included are the sources for 3 individual ice core locations (NEEM, DYE-3 and summit) using the NBLH condition.
