Snow samples - stable water isotopic composition

Description

The dataset contains the stable water isotopic composition (d18O, dD. d-excess) of the snow samples taken during the ring wind tunnel experiments in January and May 2023 at the SLF cold laboratory facilities in Davos. The snow samples were collected in air-tight WhirlPaks and kept frozen at -20°C until they were melted in the closed sampling bags, filtered and 1.8ml were transferred into a 2ml glass vial and shipped to the Paul Scherrer Institut in Villigen, Switzerland where they were analysed following established laboratory procedures. The combined uncertainty on the individual isotopic composition is <0.5‰ for dD and <0.1‰ for d18O which yields an uncertainty of 0.9‰ on d-excess. Timestamps are given for local Davos time (LT) and synchronised to the CRDS instrument which is in UTC. The "ExpNo" column refers to the experiment numbers given in Wahl et al. (2024), Table 1. The "type" of the snow samples is: "ini" = initial snow before introduction to the wind tunnel, "airborne" = snow sampled out of the air, "acc_in" = inner part of accumulated snow, "acc_out" = outer surface layer of accumulated snow.
