The present dataset encompasses part of the data collected since 1960 at Col de Porte on a daily or hourly basis. It encompasses only the incoming radiation, snow height, temperature and precipitation data. This data, and the other data acquired at Col de Porte, are extensively described in Lejeune et al., 2019 (https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-11-71-2019). The Col de Porte is located at 1325 m a.s.l., Chartreuse, France. It serves as an observatory of snow and weather conditions in mid-altitude mountains and their evolutions in the context of global climate change. It also sustains process understanding and snowpack model development and evaluation, as well as intrumental development or instruments’intercomparisons. More extensive site metadata and ancillary measurements such as soil properties and masks of the incident solar radiation are also provided in the datapaper. The data are placed on the repository of the Observatoire des Sciences de l’Univers de Grenoble (OSUG) data centre: https://doi.org/10.17178/CRYOBSCLIM.CDP.2018.
