Daily Snow Depth and SWE from GPS Signal-to-Noise Ratios, Version 1

This data set consists of daily snow depths and snow-water equivalents (SWEs) estimated from GPS signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). Snow depth is determined by calculating the relative change of the effective multipath reflector height (i.e. the snow surface) with respect to the snow free surface. SWEs are determined using GPS snow depths and, when available, density observations from nearby SNOpack TELemetry (SNOTEL) stations. When a nearby SNOTEL station is not available, density is estimated using GPS snow depth and climate classes, which account for variables such as location and time of the year.
