A meteorology and snow dataset from adjacent forested and meadow sites at Crested Butte, CO, USA

This dataset contains meteorology and snow observation data collected at sites in the southwestern Colorado Rocky Mountains during water years 2019-2021. Data collection had an emphasis on paired open-forest sites and included three forested elevations. In total, we present 270 snow pit observations, 4,019 snow depth measurements, and three years of meteorological forcing from two weather stations (one in a meadow, the other in an adjacent forest). The dataset is described in a forthcoming publication of the same name: <em>A meteorology and snow dataset from adjacent forested and meadow sites at Crested Butte, CO, USA</em> (Bonner et al., 2022). All snow observation and meteorological forcing data are available as both .nc and .mat files.<br> Additionally, original digitized copies of snow pit observations are provided as .gsheet/.xlxs files. This dataset will continue to be updated, via this repository, as additional years of data are collected.本数据集收录了2019-2021水文年期间，美国科罗拉多州落基山脉西南部各观测站点获取的气象与积雪观测数据。数据采集以开阔-森林配对观测站点为核心重点，涵盖3个森林覆盖海拔梯度。本次共提供270次雪坑观测数据、4019次雪深测量数据，以及来自2个气象站的3年气象强迫数据：其中一个气象站设于草甸，另一个设于邻近森林。本数据集的详细说明已发表于一篇同名待刊论文：《美国科罗拉多州克雷斯特德比特周边毗邻森林与草甸站点的气象与积雪数据集》（Bonner等，2022）。所有积雪观测与气象强迫数据均提供.nc与.mat两种格式文件。此外，雪坑观测的原始数字化副本以.gsheet/.xlsx格式文件提供。本数据集将随后续年份观测数据的采集，通过本存储库持续更新。
