Description
Dataset description:
Data on under-ice temperatures and solar radiation were collected in Lake Ngoring in winter 2015/2016 in a field experiment on under-ice mixing and radiation regime of Tibetan lakes. See Kirillin et al. (submitted to Geophysical Research Letters 2021) for the details on the experiment.
