GEUS Surface Energy Balance, Snow and Firn Model

Access Python or Matlab code on GitHub.

The GEUS Surface Energy Balance and Snow Model simulates surface melt snow evolution using meteorological data from PROMICE and GC-Net stations. The model includes surface temperature determination via energy budget closure and a multi-layer firn model accounting for temperature, density, grain size, and meltwater processes.
