Abstract
This dataset contains high-resolution satellite-derived snow/ice surface melt-related data on a common 100 m equal area grid (Albers equal area projection; EPSG 9822) over Helheim Glacier and surrounding areas in Greenland. The data is used as part of a machine learning framework that aims to fill data gaps in computed meltwater fraction on the 100 m grid using a range of methods, results of which will be published separately.



The data include fraction of a grid cell covered by meltwater derived from Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) backscatter, satellite-derived passive microwave (PMW) brightness temperatures, snowpack liquid water content within the first meter of snow and atmospheric and radiative variables from the Modéle Atmosphérique Règional (MAR) regional climate model, spectral reflectance in four wavelength bands from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), a static digital elevation model (DEM), and an ice sheet mask.

A similar dataset has also been produced for Larsen C ice shelf and is also available through the US Antarctic Program Data Center.
