Overview
This Western United States snow reanalysis data set contains daily estimates of posterior snow water equivalent (SWE), fractional snow-covered area (fSCA) and snow depth (SD) at 16 arc-second (~500 m) resolution from water years 1985 to 2021. This data set was developed to be compared to SnowEx data sets but its utility reaches beyond that since its spatial and temporal bounds extend over the entire Western U.S. and over several decades.
