The high Arctic Bayleva site is located on western Spitsbergen about 3 km from the settlement of Ny Ålesund. The provided data set comprises snow water equivalent (SWE) and snow depth measurements recorded by automated sensors installed in August 2019 close to the Bayelva soil and climate station, r...
