The BOREAS HYD-03 team collected several data sets related to the hydrology of forested areas. This data set includes measurements of wind speed and direction; air temperature; relative humidity; and canopy, trunk, and snow surface temperatures within three forest types. The data were collected in the SSA-OJP (1994) and SSA-OBS and SSA-OA (1996). Measurements were taken for 3 days in 1994 and 4 days at each site in 1996. These measurements were intended to be short term to allow the relationship between subcanopy measurements and those collected above the forest canopy to be determined. The subcanopy estimates of wind speed were used in a snow melt model to help predict the timing of snow ablation.

This table contains snow depth measurements made by HYD-3 in 1996.

This is a snow temperature table for HYD03. The snow temperature is given for various snow heights at various sites.

This table contains the sub-canopy radiation data collected by HYD-3.

Contains the standard snow course data collected at various sites in the NSA and SSA by HYD-04.

Contains the under canopy precipitation data that was collected in 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1997 by the HYD-01 group at the various tower sites.

Contains the areal snow survey data collected by HYD-04. The flight line numbers that are included correspond to the flight lines from HYD-06 measurements.

Contains the stream gauge data that was collected by the HYD09 group.

The BOREAS HYD-03 team collected several data sets related to the hydrology of forested areas. This data set contains measurements of snow depth, snow density in 3-cm intervals, an integrated snow pack density and snow water equivalent (SWE), and snow pack physical properties from snow pit evaluation taken in 1994 and 1996. The data were collected from several sites in both the SSA and the NSA. A variety of standard tools were used to measure the snowpack properties, including a meter stick (snow depth), a 100 cc snow density cutter, a dial stem thermometer and the Canadian snow sampler as used by HYD-04 to obtain a snow pack-integrated measure of SWE. This study was undertaken to predict spatial distributions of snow properties important to the hydrology, remote sensing signatures, and the transmissivity of gases through the snow.
