Atmospheric Turbulence Data from a 2021 Field Campaign over Patchy Snow

ENVIDAT provides raw data analyzed in the publication 'Turbulence in The Strongly Heterogeneous Near-Surface Boundary Layer over Patchy Snow'. The data was recorded during a field campaign in May and June 2021 at Dürrboden near Davos, Switzerland. The dataset was last updated on January 1, 2023.

Use Cases

• Modeling near-surface turbulence based on field campaign measurements over patchy snow.
• Analyzing boundary layer dynamics based on time-series data from a heterogeneous alpine environment.
• Studying the impact of snow cover heterogeneity on atmospheric processes based on the described campaign data.

Strengths

• Data is linked to a specific peer-reviewed publication, providing a clear research context.
• The temporal coverage is specified as May and June 2021.
• The geographic location is precisely described as Dürrboden near Davos, Switzerland.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to a single field campaign.
