SNOWISO model snow- and firn core simulations for the EastGRIP drilling site in Greenland
Description
This dataset (.csv) includes four SNOWISO v2 snowpack simulations of the stable water isotopes (δ18O, δD, d-excess) and is the result of snowpack simulations in:
Dietrich, L.J., Steen-Larsen, H.C., Wahl, S., Jones, T.R., Town, M. and Werner, M., 2023. Snow-atmosphere humidity exchange at the ice sheet surface alters annual mean climate signals in ice core records. Geophysical Research Letters, https://doi.org/10.1029/2023GL104249
The SNOWISO model is a 1-D isotope-enabled snowpack and surface exchange model. The model accumulates snowfall (input) and applies water vapor exchange (input) at the snow surface with subsequent isotopic fractionation of the surface snow. In addition, diffusion of water isotopes in the accumulated snowpack is applied. This dataset is simulated in a 1 cm vertical layer resolution.
The scientific theory of the SNOWISO model is described in:
Wahl, S., Steen‐Larsen, H.C., Hughes, A.G., Dietrich, L.J., Zuhr, A., Behrens, M., Faber, A.K. and Hörhold, M., 2022. Atmosphere‐Snow Exchange Explains Surface Snow Isotope Variability. Geophysical Research Letters, 49(20), p.e2022GL099529.
The documentation of the SNOWISO model v2 operational set-up is given in:

This model dataset consists of simulations for two model configurations each, with (control) and without (no_frac) fractionation during vapor exchange:
- daily average isotopes in the surface snow (top 2 cm) for the periods 11/05/2018-5/8/2018 and 17/5/2019-31/7/2019
- surface_snow_simulation_2018-2019_control.csv
- surface_snow_simulation_2018-2019_no_frac.csv
