Dataset of meteorological and snowpack measurements from the automatic weather station at Weissfluhjoch, Davos, Switzerland, suitable for driving snowpack models. The dataset contains standard meteorological measurements, and additionally snowpack runoff data from a snow lysimeter. Where possible, data is quality checked and missing data are replaced from backup sensors from the measurement site itself, or (in only a few cases) from the MeteoSwiss weather station at 470 m distance and 150 m above the measurement site.
