McMurdo Dry Valleys Glacier melt modeling: Wind Speed 1996-2011

This is the data and metatada for modeled Wind Speed - part of six modeled parameters that comprise the Taylor Valley Galcier Melt modeling Data contained and described in this document correspond to the physically-based surface energy balance model for the glaciers of Taylor Valley developed by the dataset owners. The spatial variability in ablation (ice melt and sublimation), runoff, and climate sensitivity of the glaciers was modeled using 16 years of meteorological and surface mass balance (the net mass gain or loss of ice on the surface of the glacier) observations collected in Taylor Valley (see figure).   An unusual aspect of the model is the inclusion of transmission of solar radiation into the ice and subsequent drainage of some subsurface melt .   Melt model was applied to the ablation zones of the glaciers of Taylor Valley, identified by colored areas. Mass balance stakes, meteorological stations, and stream gages shown for reference. This dataset package is part of a 6-pack multi-set, which you can find at http://mcmlter.org The input files, parameters and examples are found in this package: http://mcmlter.org/content/glacier-melt-modeling-inputs-and-example-m-file-reader

本数据集包含模拟风速相关数据及元数据（metadata），其为构成泰勒谷冰川融雪模拟数据集的6项模拟参数之一。本文所收录并描述的数据，对应由数据集开发者构建的、针对泰勒谷冰川的基于物理过程的地表能量平衡模型（surface energy balance model）。研究团队利用在泰勒谷采集的16年气象观测与地表物质平衡（surface mass balance，即冰川表面冰体的净增益或损耗）数据，对冰川的消融（冰融与升华）、径流以及气候敏感性的空间变异性进行了模拟（详见附图）。该模型的一项特色设计在于，纳入了太阳辐射穿透冰层以及部分地下融水后续排出的过程。融雪模型被应用于以彩色区域标识的泰勒谷冰川消融区，图中同时标注了物质平衡桩、气象站与溪流测流断面以供参考。本数据包为6组多数据集套件的组成部分，完整套件可通过http://mcmlter.org 获取。本数据包内包含输入文件、参数与示例，可通过以下链接获取：http://mcmlter.org/content/glacier-melt-modeling-inputs-and-example-m-file-reader
