en: We conducted an experimental rockfall campaign on a forested slope with deadwood and on with the windthrown area cleared in Schiers (CH). Two different rock categories were used: natural rocks with masses between 30 and 85 kg and artificial EOTA-concrete rocks with rock masses ranging from 45 kg up to 3200 kg. In contrast to the intended research article publication, also all information about the experimental runs of the smaller rock masses are available. Besides the geometries of those rocks, the data set contains three LiDAR point clouds, orthophotos, the release point (and release line used in RAMMS), the retrieved single tree positions with DBH, and energy absorption threshold, video footage, and all reconstructed trajectories.

REPRODUCIBILITY_POSTPROCESSING.zip contains data and scripts used to produce all figures from for the associated manuscript submitted for peer review ( see section on Citations below )

The folders stand for the three case studies presented in the manuscript. Two case studies (case Ia and case Ib) are on simulations in Antarctica and one case study
case II is for simulations in the Alps.

The associated data in the form of netcdf files or text files were produced using CRYOWRF v1.0

Apart from reproducibility, the intention of sharing these scripts is also to make it easy for new users to adopt CRYOWRF and be efficient, in particular in processing snowpack outputs.

The scripts were tested on multiple machines (different OSes) with the attached YAML file (wrf_analysis.yml) to setup the conda environment. All scripts were run using spyder as the IDE.

format: ZIP

en: REPRODUCIBILITY_SIMULATION.zip contains all the extraneous files required to perform the simulations in associated manuscript (see Citations 3 in README.txt). The purpose of sharing these files apart from purposes of reproducibility is to also serve as templates for users to learn the workflow of CRYOWRF and perform simulations for their own purposes.

en:
This repository contains data required for reproducibility of the results to be published in the associated manuscript.

en: High quality meteorological data are needed for long-term forest ecosystem research, particularly in the light of global change. The long-term data series published here comprises almost 20 years of measurements for two meteorological stations in Celerina in Switzerland where one station is located within a natural coniferous forest stand (CLB) with Swiss pine (_Pinus cembra_; 210-250 yrs) as dominant tree species. A second station is situated in the very vicinity outside of the forest (field station, CLF). The meteorological time series are presented in hourly time resolution of air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and wind speed. Celerina is part of the Long-term Forest Ecosystem Research Programme (LWF) established and maintained by the Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL.

en: After a major dieback of Scots pines in the Valais, an inner Alpine valley in Switzerland, the colonization of differently vigorous pines by stem and branch insects was investigated to assess their role in tree mortality. At 2 locations, the needle loss (defoliation) of some 500 pine trees was assessed twice a year. Of these trees, 34-36 trees were cut each year between 2001-2005 across all defoliation classes. From each tree, two 75-cm bolts were cut from both the stem and thick branches. They were incubated in photo-eclectors (metal cabinets) set up in a greenhouse where the insects could develop under the bark. The emerged adults were collected in water-filled eclector boxes and identified to species level by specialists. Attack time was estimated from the development time of each insect species emerged. The colonisation densities of the trees were related to the transparency level of each host tree at the time of attack.

en: Contains: all codes, installation procedure, technical documentation, an example of Digital Elevation Model of the Swiss Alps, the expected outputs of the code (downscaled wind fields).

en:
Wind-Topo is a statistical downscaling model for near surface wind fields especially suited for highly complex terrain.

It is based on deep learning and was trained (calibrated) using the hourly wind speed and direction from 261 automatic measurement stations (IMIS and SwissMetNet) located in Switzerland. The periods 1st October 2015 to 1st October 2016 and 1st October 2017 to 1st October 2018 were used for training. The model was validated using 60 other stations on the period 1st October 2016 to 1st October 2017. Wind-Topo was trained using COSMO-1 data and a 53-meter Digital Elevation Model as input.

This dataset provides all the necessary code to understand, use and incorporate Wind-Topo in a new downscaling scheme. Specifically, the dataset contains the architecture of Wind-Topo and its optimized parameters, as well as a python script to downscale uniform wind fields with a prescribed vertical profile for any given 53-meter DEM.

Accompanies the publication "Wind-Topo: Downscaling near-surface wind fields to high-resolution topography in highly complex terrain with deep learning" Dujardin and Lehning, Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2022. https://doi.org/10.1002/qj.4265

Resources associated with the manuscript *A case study on the application of spore sampling for the monitoring of fungi* (Schlegel et al. 2023, submitted).
Airborne environmental DNA (eDNA) monitoring of fungi was evaluated on a species-rich grassland site. Extensive fruiting body surveys yielded 29 waxcap and clavarioid species, 19 of which were also detectable in air eDNA. The analysis indicates that spores of locally occurring fruiting bodies were detected, in addition to a large diversity of common fungal species, while rare and threatened species were underrepresented in the air.
The contents of the dataset (ZIP archive):
* All analysis scripts in [R-Markdown](https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com) format, including the rendered PDF output with figures and tables (*analysis* directory)
* eDNA sample metadata (*amplicon_meta*) and results of the amplicon clustering (*amplicon_data*) and the source code of the pipeline (*amplicon_pipeline*)

Two stem core samples of 12 to 20 trees outside the plot of each main species in the plot were taken at breast height (1.3 m above ground) with a SUUNTO corer. Tree ring width and density were determined with the instruments CATRAS and TSAP, the Densitometer DENDRO 2003 and a stereo-microscope. The selected trees included at least 12 pre-dominant or dominant trees and if possible also 4 subdominant or surpressed trees. NOTE: The samplings were carried out between 1996 and 1999 for most plots and in 2003 for the plot Lantsch. The cores cover a time span depending on the age of the oldest trees on a plot. On one plot the oldest sampled tree ring grew in the year 1646.

 Purpose:

Reconstruction of stand history and tree growth

Ground vegetation is an important compartment of the ecosystem in terms of biodiversity and it takes an active part in the general functioning of the ecosystem. It is also a useful bio-indicator of the site conditions and its monitoring may enable the detection of environmental changes. Ground vegetation relevés were repeatedly carried out at 17 LWF plots in the period between 1994 and 2011. In 2013, ground vegetation was surveyed at an additional LWF plot (Laegeren). Phytosociological relevés were carried out in one or two concentric circular plots of 30, 200, 400 and 500 m2. All species occurring on the whole area of the LWF plot were also noted during the first vegetation survey.

 Purpose:

To assess the species diversity of ground vegetation and detect possible environmental changes using its bio-indicator value.

The Intercantonal Measurement and Information System (IMIS) consists of nearly 200 automatic measuring stations. They are distributed throughout the Swiss Alps and the Jura region and, in most cases, are situated above the tree line, most frequently between 2000 and 3000 m. The stations record the conditions around the clock, in general every 30 minutes.
Most IMIS stations are located in the vicinity of starting zones of potentially destructive avalanches, and provide essential information to local safety officers for public safety in settlements and on the roads. They are also used for snow-hydrological and research purposes and by the avalanche warning service of the SLF.
This dataset comprises data from IMIS snow and wind stations. The snow and wind stations are usually situated close to each other and measure the key weather data required for assessing the avalanche danger.

 IMIS snow stations

Snow stations are located on wind-protected flat terrain. The snowpack model SNOWPACK calculates the layers and properties of the snowpack throughout the winter for each of the IMIS snow stations.
The following variables are measured or simulated in the standard programme of IMIS snow stations and are available in this dataset:

- Snow depth
- 24-hour new snow (SNOWPACK simulation)
- Air and surface temperature
- Wind speed and direction
- Relative humidity
- Reflected shortwave radiation
- Ground temperature
- Snow temperature 25 cm, 50 cm and 100 cm above the ground

 IMIS wind stations

Wind stations are generally situated at higher altitudes on exposed summits or ridges.
The following variables are measured in the standard programme of IMIS wind stations and are available in this dataset:

- Wind speed and direction
- Air temperature
- Relative humidity

The R script presents an advanced sampling approach for monitoring biodiversity on agricultural land by combining multiple objectives and integrating environmental and geographic space.

The example demonstrates the first-stage selection of squares (km2) in the ALL-EMA sampling design using modern sampling techniques such as unequal probability sampling with fixed sample size, balanced sampling, stratified balancing and geographic spreading. Sampling is done with unequal probabilities and weights defined by power allocation to give equal weight to extrapolations to the total agricultural area of Switzerland and two stratifications of predefined interest (regions and agricultural production zones). Calibration is used to limit the distribution of the sampling weights. The sample sizes are almost fixed within the strata and evenly distributed across the years of a temporal rotation plan, which is favourable for the organisation of the field survey. Sampling also ensures an optimal (annual) distribution across geographic space, including altitude. Despite the complexity of the sampling, estimation based on probability theory is straightforward.

 Dataset
This dataset is based on terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) data acquired during winter 2020/2021 in leaf-off conditions, with a Leica BLK 360 instrument following a tree-centric scanning pattern.
The data was acquired on two sites (47.42°N 8.49°E and 47.504°N, 7.78°E), both of which were managed mixed temperate forest stands.
Individual trees were semi-automatically segmented from the co-registered TLS point clouds.

 Background
Accurate estimates of individual tree volume or biomass within forest inventories are essential for calibration and validation of biomass mapping products based on Earth observation data.
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) enables detailed and non-destructive volume estimation of individual trees, with existing approaches ranging from simple geometrical features to virtual 3D reconstruction of entire trees. Validating such approaches with weight measurements is a key step before the integration of TLS or other close-range technologies into operational applications such as forest inventories.
In this study, we firstly evaluate individual tree volume estimation approaches based on 3D reconstruction through quantitative structure models (QSM) against destructive reference data of 60 trees and compare them to operational allometric scaling models (ASM).
Secondly, we determine the explanatory power of TLS-derived geometric parameters regarding total tree, stem, coarse wood and fine branch volume.

Title: Does zoning contain built-up land expansion? Causal evidence from Zhangzhou City, China.

Research objective: Built-up land zoning is an imporatant policy measure of land use planning (LUP) to contain built-up land expansion in China. We used a difference-indifference model with propensity score matching to estimate the average and annual effect of built-up land zoning on built-up land expansion in Zhangzhou City, China between 2010 and 2020.

Data: Data.dbf contains the varibles of 1662 villages in Zhangzhou Cities in 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2013, 2015, 2018, and 2020.
XZQDM2 is villages' unique administrative ID;
Area is the land area of village i;
Dis2water is the Euclidean distance from village i to the nearest waterbody;
Dis2coastl is the Euclidean distance from village i to the nearest coastline;
Dis2city is the the Euclidean distance from village i to the city center;
Dis2county is the the Euclidean distance from village i to the nearest county center;
Elevation is the the average elevation within village i;
Dis2road is the the Euclidean distance from village i to the nearest road;
Nei_Built_ is the the area of built-up land (Nei Built.upit) in the neighboring villages of village i in year t;
Treated is a binary variable, Treated = 1 to the villages that were partially or entirely located inside the development-permitted zones, and Treated = 0 to the villages that were entirely located outside the development-permitted zones;
Intensity is the percentage of land that was assigned to the development-permitted zones in village i;
Year represent the year in 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2013, 2015, 2018, and 2020;
BuLE is the dependent variable, representing built-up land expansion in village i in year t;
Town is town' unique administrative ID.

Method: First, we employed propensity score matching to overcome the selection bias and satisfy the parallel trend
assumption. Second, we built four Difference-in-Difference models to estimate the average and annual effect.

en: D_QC for forecasting seasons 2001/2002 until 2019/2020.

en:
The data set contains the re-analyzed (or quality-checked) regional avalanche danger levels (D_QC) for Switzerland.

D_QC relates to dry-snow avalanche conditions only. Measuring the avalanche danger level D is not possible; forecast, nowcast, and hindcast assessments of D are judgments by humans interpreting data. However, combining several pieces of information indicating the same D, it can be expected that it is more likely that D_QC represents the avalanche conditions well.

For the **forecasting seasons 2001/2002 until 2019/2020**, the approach to obtain D_QC is described in detail in Appendix A of [Pérez-Guillén et. al. (2022)](https://nhess.copernicus.org/articles/22/2031/2022/nhess-22-2031-2022.html).

For the **forecasting seasons 2020/2021 and later**, D_QC is derived using the following approach:
1. *Combination of forecast (D_forecast) and nowcast (D_nowcast)*: If there was only one assessment available by an observer after a day in the field for a region, and if D_forecast = D_nowcast --> D_QC = D_forecast.
2. *Combination of several nowcast assessments (D_nowcast)*: If two (or more) observers agreed (or majority opinion) in their (independent) assessments of D_nowcast after a day in the field in the same warning region. --> D_QC = D_nowcast.
3. *Hindcast analysis (D_hindcast)*: In Switzerland, avalanche forecasters re-evaluate all situations when D = 4 (high) or D = 5 (very high) were either forecast, should have been forecast, or when forecasters discussed given one of these two levels but had not given them. Generally, two forecasters assess each situation. In these cases, D_QC = D_hindcast. The hindcast analysis, only available since the forecasting season 2020/2021, replaces what was step (2) in Appendix A of [Pérez-Guillén et. al. (2022)](https://nhess.copernicus.org/articles/22/2031/2022/nhess-22-2031-2022.html).

All other cases - ties in case of (1) or (2), no new information from the warning region in question, or if no D_hindcast was available - are not considered quality-checked, and are, thus, not contained in the data set.

In addition to D_QC, the file contains information on the elevation and aspect, where D_QC likely prevails.
- The indicated elevation is the mean of the respective elevations in (1), (2), or (3). At danger level 1 (low), when no elevation is indicated in the Swiss forecast, a value of 1500 m is set.
- For the four cardinal aspects N, E, S, and W, a value of 1 means that there was agreement that D was reached in this aspect and a value of 0 means that there was agreement that D was not reached in this aspect. Intermediate values correspondingly mark disagreements in the assessments.

en: We recorded snow ablation maps with a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS, Riegl-VZ6000) at the Gletschboden area. The TLS position is located approximately 30 vertical meters above the Gletschboden area at a northerly exposed slope. In total 44 TLS measurement sets have been conducted in three consecutive years 2014-2016 (2014: 13 measurements; 2015: 17 measurements; 2016: 14 measurements). The TLS system has a single-point measurement frequency of 300 kHz and a beam divergence of 0.007°. This set-up allows a horizontal resolution of approximately 0.01 m in 100 m distance to the TLS position. One scan of the Gletschboden area lasts approximately 15 minutes. The travel time from the laser scanner towards the surface is recorded and afterwards converted into a point cloud of distances. 5 reflectors located at the Gletschboden area and in the closer surroundings were additionally scanned during each measurement to transform the point cloud from the scanner own coordinate system into Swiss coordinates. Additionally, orthophotos have been created by using pictures recorded from the TLS in order to provide snow mask maps. Snow and bare ground can be distinguished by the RGB color information of the orthophoto. Cells with blue band information greater than 175 were categorized as snow and all cells with values smaller or equal 175 were categorized as bare ground.

en: Please find the readme file.

en:
For the release of a slab avalanche, crack propagation within a weak snowpack layer below a cohesive snow slab is required. As crack speed measurements can give insight into the underlying processes, we analysed three crack propagation events that occurred in similar snowpacks and covered all scales relevant for avalanche release. For the largest scale, up to 400 m, we estimated crack speed from an avalanche movie, for scales between 5 and 25 meters, we used accelerometers placed on the snow surface, and for scales below 5 meters, we performed a Propagation Saw Test. The mean crack speeds ranged from 36 ± 6 to 49 ± 5 m s^{-1}, and did not exhibit scale dependence. Using the Discrete Element Method and the Material Point Method, we reproduced the measured crack speeds reasonably well, in particular the terminal crack speed observed at smaller scales.
This dataset includes raw data as well as crack speed estimates from the three crack propagation events.
Where possible, we reproduced these field experiments with numerical models based on Discrete Element Method (DEM, Bobillier and others, 2020 and 2021) and Material Point Method (MPM. Gaume and others, 2018 and Trottet and others, 2021). The input parameters of the models were estimated from the corresponding snow profiles conducted at each test site.

 The raw data include:
* Propagation Saw Test movie with mechanical fields derived from Digital image Correlation analysis of the recording
* Acceleration data recorded with wireless time synchronized accelerometers placed on the snow surface during crack propagation in a whumpf.
*Video of an artificially triggered avalanche with widespread crack propagation. The video was used to georeference surface cracks in order to estimate crack propagation time and distance, providing crack propagation speed estimates.
* Snow profile recorded at each test site

 Experimental crack speed estimates include:
* Crack speed evolution within the first meters derived from the Propagation Saw Test.
* Crack speeds estimated from the time delay of the collapse, observed between different accelerometers during crack propagation of a whumpf.
* Crack speed estimates from video analysis of the artificially triggered avalanche.

 Reproduced crack speeds using the DEM an MPM model:
* Modelled Propagation Saw Test using MPM (2D and 3D system) and DEM.
* Modelled whumpf using MPM (beam and areal configuration)
* Modelled avalanche using MPM (beam and areal configuration)

Beside the movies (mp4 format), all data is either provided as netCDF files or excel sheets (see readme file), depending on the amount of data. A detailed description of the three crack propagation events and how crack speed was derived, can be found in the related publication:

This work presents the first extensive study of climate change impacts on rivers temperature in Switzerland. Results show that even for low emissions scenarios, water temperature increase will lead to adverse effect for both ecosystems and socioeconomic sectors (such as nuclear plant cooling) throughout the 21st century. For high emissions scenarios, the effect will be worsen. This study also shows that water warming in summer will be more important in Alpine regions than in lowlands.

This data set contains the produced snow depth maps as well as the reference data set (manual and snow pole measurements) from our paper "Intercomparison of photogrammetric platforms for spatially continuous snow depth mapping".

Abstract. Snow depth has traditionally been estimated based on point measurements collected either manually or at automated weather stations. Point measurements, though, do not represent the high spatial variability of snow depths present in alpine terrain. Photogrammetric mapping techniques have progressed in recent years and are capable of accurately mapping snow depth in a spatially continuous manner, over larger areas, and at various spatial resolutions. However, the strengths and weaknesses associated with specific platforms and photogrammetric techniques, as well as the accuracy of the photogrammetric performance on snow surfaces have not yet been sufficiently investigated. Therefore, industry-standard photogrammetric platforms, including high-resolution satellites (Pléiades), airplane (Ultracam Eagle M3), Unmanned Aerial System (eBee+ with S.O.D.A. camera) and terrestrial (single lens reflex camera, Canon EOS 750D), were tested for snow depth mapping in the alpine Dischma valley (Switzerland) in spring 2018. Imagery was acquired with airborne and space-borne platforms over the entire valley, while Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and terrestrial photogrammetric imagery was acquired over a subset of the valley. For independent validation of the photogrammetric products, snow depth was measured by probing, as well as using remote observations of fixed snow poles.

When comparing snow depth maps with manual and snow pole measurements the root mean square error (RMSE) values and the normalized median deviation (NMAD) values were 0.52 m and 0.47 m respectively for the satellite snow depth map, 0.17 m and 0.17 m for the airplane snow depth map, 0.16 m and 0.11 m for the UAS snow depth map. The area covered by the terrestrial snow depth map only intersected with 4 manual measurements and did not generate statistically relevant measurements. When using the UAS snow depth map as a reference surface, the RMSE and NMAD values were 0.44 m and 0.38 m for the satellite snow depth map, 0.12 m and 0.11 m for the airplane snow depth map, 0.21 and 0.19 m for the terrestrial snow depth map. When compared to the airplane dataset over a large part of the Dischma valley (40 km2), the snow depth map from the satellite yielded a RMSE value of 0.92 m and a NMAD value of 0.65 m. This study provides comparative measurements between photogrammetric platforms to evaluate their specific advantages and disadvantages for operational, spatially continuous snow depth mapping in alpine terrain over both small and large geographic areas.

en: High quality meteorological data are needed for long-term forest ecosystem research, particularly in the light of global change. The long-term data series published here comprises almost 20 years of measurements for two meteorological stations in Othmarsingen in Switzerland where one station is located within a natural deciduous forest stand (OTB) with European beech (_Fagus sylvatica_; 120-140 yrs) and lime trees (_Tilia sp._; 120-140 yrs) as dominant tree species. A second station is situated in the very vicinity outside of the forest (field station, OTF). The meteorological time series are presented in hourly time resolution of air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and wind speed. Othmarsingen is part of the Long-term Forest Ecosystem Research Programme (LWF) established and maintained by the Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL.
