ACSYS and CliC Dataset
The Arctic Climate System Study (ACSYS) was initiated to ascertain the role of the Arctic in global climate. The GRDC assembled and maintained the Arctic Runoff Data Base…
GRDC currently holds river discharge time series from 2625 gauging stations in the Arctic region with earliest records from 1877 and an average time series length of 41 years, with a range from 1 to 138 years. Initially compiled for the ACSYS and CliC projects now the Arctic Region Dataset forms an integral part of the Global Runoff Database and is continually updated. Especially in the context of the Arctic-HYCOS project, the Arctic Region dataset is being expanded and updated to support the Arctic-HYCOS basic network.
