GLACIERS AND CLIMATE OF THE UPPER SUSITNA BASIN, ALASKA; SUPPORTING DATA.

As part of a study for a proposed hydropower facility, the authors conducted extensive field observations in the Upper Susitna basin, a 13,289 km2 (5,130 mi2) glacierized catchment in central Alaska, in 2012-2014. This comprehensive data set includes meteorological, glacier mass balance, snow cover, and soil measurements. We also include digitized snow depth data from a set of similar observations collected in the 1980s. The data will be useful for hydrological and glaciological studies, including modeling efforts.
