title: Model outputs to "Langtang Ice Cliff Modelling Study"

description: This dataset contains all the model results of our study "Supraglacial ice cliffs can substantially increase the mass loss of debris-covered glaciers". The zip-file contains one main folder: "Cliffmodel_Results" (produced using the 3D-backwasting ice cliff model from Buri et al., 2016b, Buri & Pellicciotti, 2018). More raw data upon request. <strong>Folder structure of "Langtang_IceCliffModellingStudy.7z":</strong> ───Cliffmodel_Results<br> ├───LangshishaGlacier<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_A_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_B_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_C_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_D_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_E_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_F_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_G_3m<br> │ └───Output_Cliffs_Langshisha2014_H_3m<br> ├───LangtangGlacier<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_A_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_B_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_C_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_D_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_E_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_F_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_G_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_H_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_I_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_J_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_K_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_L_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_M_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_N_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_O_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_P_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_Q_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_R_3m<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_S_3m<br> │ └───Output_Cliffs_Langtang2014_T_3m<br> ├───LirungGlacier<br> │ ├───Output_Cliffs_Lirung2014_A_3m<br> │ │ └───intermediateOutput<br> │ └───Output_Cliffs_Lirung2014_B_3m<br> │ └───intermediateOutput<br> └───ShalbachumGlacier<br> ├───Output_Cliffs_Shalbachum2014_A_3m<br> │ └───intermediateOutput<br> ├───Output_Cliffs_Shalbachum2014_B_3m<br> │ └───intermediateOutput<br> ├───Output_Cliffs_Shalbachum2014_C_3m<br> │ └───intermediateOutput<br> ├───Output_Cliffs_Shalbachum2014_D_3m<br> │ └───intermediateOutput<br> └───Output_Cliffs_Shalbachum2014_E_3m<br> └───intermediateOutput<br> <strong>File structure within Cliffmodel_Results \ &lt;GLACIERNAME&gt; \ Output_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_A_3m:</strong> <em>DC_Fluxes_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m_ls.rda</em> →List of 10 matrices for each energy balance flux with average diurnal cycle (rows) and cliff (columns) for specific model period <em>geom_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;_Cliffs_Lirung2014_A_3m.txt</em> →Characteristics (Elevation,Slope,Aspect,x,y,ID,VsI,VsL,Vd) for each pixel of all cliffs (specific ID) for specific model period <em>MODELSETTINGS_GSM_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;_&lt;GLACIERSECTOR&gt;_22Aug_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIER&gt;2014.txt</em> →Details on all modelsettings <em>PC_Melt_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m.txt</em> →Melt values for each cliff (columns) and timestep (rows) for specific model period <em>PC_Stats_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m.txt</em> →Summary statistics for each cliff (rows) for specific model period <em>perPx_DC_Fluxes_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m_ls.rda</em> →List of list with per pixel diurnal cycle and standard deviation of each energy flux for specific model period <em>SD_Fluxes_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m_ls.rda</em> →List of 10 matrices for each energy balance flux with standard deviation for each hour of the day (rows) and cliff (columns) for specific model period <em>Stats_MeanFluxes_tts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m.txt</em> →Mean energy fluxes per timestep (rows) averaged over all ice cliffs <em>Stats_NonGriddedData_ts&lt;TIMESTEP1&gt;to&lt;TIMESTEP2&gt;_Cliffs_&lt;GLACIERNAME&gt;2014_3m.txt</em> →Statistics of non-distributed parameters averaged over all cliffs per timestep (rows)
