Simulation outputs of DynSoM model and instrumental data for Samoylov Island's polygonal tundra

These datasets include the observational data, the input parameters, and the Dynamic Soil Model (DynSoM) outputs of a polygonal tundra arctic environment located in the quaternary sediments of Samoylov island, with and without considering heave due the segregation of ice. The data is gathered  (SamValidation.mat) and simulated at the centre and rim of one of the polygons, which correspond to wet and dry tundra conditions respectively. This dataset Is used as a primary data input for the simulation and output for the figures of the article "Mechanistic Modelling of Segregated Ice and Soil Heave Dynamics in Artic Soils" by Xavier Rodriguez-Lloveras, Melanie A. Thurner Philipp Porada & Christian Beer, Universität Hamburg. Submitted to "The Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems (JAMES)" on February 2023.

The datasets are published as MATLAB matrix format and require adequate MATLAB (or equivalent) software for visualization.

The validation data (SamValidation.mat) is a subset of the data published by Boike et al. (2019, doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.905236) adapted to the DynSoM model requirements.
