Snow penetration resistance measured 2024-04-09 to 2024-04-15 with a SnowMicroPen (SMP): Kuup Ilua (Blæsedalen) on Qeqertarsuaq (Disko Island), Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland)

DOI

The dataset contains 244 snow penetration force profiles collected along three transects in Kuup Ilua (Blæsedalen) on Qeqertarsuaq (Disko Island)], Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), during a field campaign from April 9 to 15, 2024, as part of the MOMENT project - Permafrost Research Towards Integrated Observation and Modeling of the Methane Budget of Ecosystems. The snow penetration force profiles were measured with a high-resolution electronic snow penetrometer (SnowMicroPen). The position estimates of the SMP were improved using an Emlid GNSS system. The system consisted of an RS2+ operated as a base station and a Reach M+ connected to the SMP as a rover, improving position estimates from 2-3 m to cm-level accuracy. The dataset contains the raw data output by the SMP in .PNT format. Some profiles have been merged when ice layers were encountered and the SMP was forced to conduct multiple measurements at the same location. For details, see the accompanying metadata document.
