Collection: Historical and Projected Estimates of Snow Fraction and and the Amount of Precipitation that Likely Falls as Snow Across Alaska

This collection includes several datasets related to the fraction of precipitation days that are snowy (vs. rainy) and the amount of precipitation that likely falls as snow across Alaska. Both historical and future projections are included. Files include: Climatological summaries of downscaled historical and projected decadal average monthly snowfall equivalent ("SWE", in millimeters), the ratio of snowfall equivalent to precipitation, and future change in snowfall for October to March at 771 meter spatial resolution across the state of Alaska. Historical downscaled estimates of decadal average monthly snow-day fraction ("fs", units = percent probability from 1 to 100) for each month of the decades from 1900 through 1909 to 2000 through 2009 at 771 x 771 m spatial resolution. Downscaled historical decadal average monthly snowfall equivalent ("SWE", in millimeters) for each month at 771 x 771 m spatial resolution. Downscaled projections of decadal average monthly snow day fraction ("fs", units = percent probability from 1 to 100) for each month of the decades from 2010 through 2019 to 2090 through 2099 at 771 x 771 m spatial resolution. Downscaled projections of decadal average monthly snowfall equivalent ("SWE", in millimeters) for each month of the decades from 2010 through 2019 to 2090 through 2099 at 771 x 771 m spatial resolution.
