MASS2ANT Snowfall Dataset (Downscaling @5.5km over Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, 1850 - 2014): Daily fields (Part 2)
We provide in this dataset maps at 5.5 km resolution of the daily and yearly accumulated snowfall over emerged land (Ice Sheet) of Dronning Maud Land (Antarctica) from 1850 to 2014. We used a statistical method to derive fine resolution maps from GCM runs (CESM2, 10 runs). In the method, we searched...
