WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) data over the Dudh Koshi Valley, Himalaya, with and without debris covered glaciers, July 2013

This dataset contains atmospheric data from the WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) model. The model is located over the Dudh Koshi Valley, and the model was run for July 2013. WRF version 3.8 was used. This data has been used to create and examine the effectiveness of a new debris-covered glacier representation in the WRF model.

There are eight NetCDF files containing the data: The model with the default glacier landmask in the model (WRF_DudhKoshiHimalayas_201306_CleanIceGlaciers.nc); the model with a new representation of debris-covered glaciers (WRF_DudhKoshiHimalayas_201306_DebrisCoverGlaciers.nc); and six sensitivity tests varying albedo, emissivity and roughness length (WRF_DudhKoshiHimalayas_201306_DebrisCoverGlaciers_albedoHIGH.nc, etc).

Statement
The data were created on the British Antarctic Survey high performance computer, the output was compacted (for example variables in the model column were post-processed, and only the two-dimensional data were kept). Data has been delivered to the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) for archiving.
