Description

This dataset contains the catchment scale results of the study: "Unravelling the sources of uncertainty in glacier runoff projections in the Patagonian Andes (40–56° S)". The results are disaggregated in the following files (for more details, please read the README file):

- basins_boundaries.zip: Contains the polygons (in .shp format) of the studied catchments. Each catchment is identified by its "basin_id".

- dataset_historical.csv: Summarises the historical conditions of each glacier at the catchment scale (area, volume and reference climate).

- dataset_future.csv: Summarises the future glacier climate drivers and their impacts at the catchment scale. 

  • dataset_signatures.csv: Summarises the  glacio-hydrological signatures for each catchment. The metrics are calculated for the variables "total glacier runoff (tr)" and "melt on glacier (mg)". The main source of uncertainty in each catchment was the source that accumulated most RMSE loss.
