Surface mass balance of the Monte Sarmiento Massif (2000-2022), Tierra del Fuego, Chile.

This dataset contains the climatological input and the modelled surface mass balance of the Monte Sarmiento Massif, Tierra del Fuego, calculated with four different surface mass balance models. The climatological input is calculated by statistically downscaling ERA5 reanalysis data to a weather station at Schiaparelli Glacier via Quantile Mapping. The precipitation is simulated with an orographic precipitation model. The four applied surface mass balance models are a) a positive degree day model (PDD), b) a simplified energy balance model with potential radiation (SEBGpot) and c) with actual radiation including cloud cover and shading (SEBG), and d) a coupled snowpack and ice surface energy and mass balance model (COSIPY).
