Mass Change in the Mackenzie River Basin

The contained software and data are those created for the article "Mass changes in a high-latitude river basin from two decades of GRACE/GRACE-FO", Bringeland, S., Fotopoulos, G. Some of the datasets are adapted from open-source datasets that are cited below. Datasets that were not adapted in any way were not included in the repository - this includes the CSR mascons (CSR_GRACE_GRACE-FO_RL06_Mascons_all-corrections_v02.nc), the land mask for the CSR mascons (CSR_GRACE_GRACE-FO_RL06_Mascons_v02_LandMask.nc), the glacial isostatic adjustment correction for the CSR mascons (CSR_GRACE_GRACE-FO_RL0602_Mascons_GIA-component.nc) [1-3], the JPL mascons (GRCTellus.JPL.200204_202306.GLO.RL06.1M.MSCNv03CRI.nc), the land mask for the JPL mascons (LAND_MASK.CRI.nc) [2], the ERA5-Land total evaporation and total precipitation [4-6], the evaporation and evapotranspiration data from the Ecological Assimilation of Land and Climate Observations (EALCO) [7-9], the total precipitation data from CanKrig [10], the water fraction data from [11], the Lambeck (2017) GIA model [12], and the NAD83(vsrs)v8G vertical crustal velocity model [13].
