Dataset description

Weather station data at five on-glacier stations in Peru and the ecohydrological model Tethys-Chloris. Data includes: - Hourly weather station data from Shallap Glacier, Artesonraju Glacier, Cuchillacocha Glacier, Quisoquipina Glacier and Quelccaya Ice Cap. Given as .csv files and as model input files. - The model code used to input the data and set the correct parameters for these sites. - The model code for the point version of Tethys-Chloris, an ecohydrological model which is used in this case to calculate glacier melt and mass balance.
