title: Monsoon precipitation phase change accelerates glacier mass loss in the Southeast Tibetan Plateau

description: Materials and data results needed to reproduce the findings of the submitted work: "<em>Accelerated glacier mass loss in the Southeast Tibetan Plateau is dominated by monsoon precipitation phase change"</em>. A. Jouberton, T. E. Shaw, E. Miles, M. McCarthy, S. Fugger, S. Ren, A. Dehecq, W. Yang and F. Pellicciotti It includes the meteorological forcing time-series, an exhaustive list of the model parameters, the outputs of TOPKAPI-ETH, and Matlab scripts allowing to reproduce the figures and compute the numbers given in the main manuscript as well as in the Supplementary Information. --------------- <strong>Contents</strong> : Folder : "Matlab_scripts"<br> '<strong>Climate_import.m</strong>' : Organizes meteorological forcings and generates Figure S7<br> <strong> 'TOPKAPI_result_import.m' :</strong> Imports TOPKAPI's reference run outputs and prepares them for analysis<br> <strong> 'Experiment_analysis.m' : </strong>Analyses the results of the forcing experiments, generates Figure 4 and Figure S16<br> <strong> 'Main_text_results.m' : </strong>Analyses the results of TOPKAPI's reference runs, generates Figure 1D, FIgure 2 and Figure 3<br> <strong> 'TOPKAPI_validation.m' : </strong>Compares TOPKAPI's reference run results with several validation datasets, generates the figures and performance metrics of the model calibration and validation procedure.
