Spatio-temporal soil and local snow monitoring in a glide-snow avalanche prone slope above Davos Switzerland

This dataset consists of spatio-temporal soil measurements and local snow measurements which were recorded to investigate glide-snow avalanche release in the Seewer Berg slope (Davos, Switzerland) from Nov 2021 to June 2024. Investigations based on this dataset were published in the research article: Fees A., Lombardo M., van Herwijnen A., Lehmann P., Schweizer J. (2025). The source, quantity, and spatial distribution of interfacial water during glide-snow avalanche release: experimental evidence from field monitoring. The Cryosphere The dataset consists of: - Soil measurements (temperature and liquid water content) at soil depths of -5cm, -10cm, and -20cm - Matric potential at depths of -5cm, -10cm, and -20cm - Manual snow profiles (Snow height, temperature, liquid water content, bulk density) - Metadata and manual snow profiles on glide-snow avalanches that released in the Seewer Berg slope - Snow height, air temperature and rain simulated with SNOWPACK.
