A snow depth of 370 cm at Dunderlandsdalen in winter 1919–20 is the largest recorded at stations in Nordland, Norway. During the period 1895–1924, the average maximum annual value there was 150.4 cm; at other stations it ranged from 38.5 to 190.1 cm. The ratio of maxima at other stations to that at Dunderlandsdalen was particularly low in 1919–20. In Nordland generally, that winter's recorded precipitation was slightly above the 30‐year average, but at Dunderlandsdalen it exceeded the average by 34%. At all stations except Dunderlandsdalen, 26 Jan.–1 Feb. was a dry period; at Dunderlandsdalen, 51.7 mm was recorded. Only one day without snowfall was recorded at Dunderlandsdalen between early January and early February, but elsewhere there were few days with snowfall. The difference in snowfall frequency and snow depth at Dunderlandsdalen in 1919–20 from values recorded elsewhere in Nordland contrasts with the relationships in other winters between 1895 and 1924. No observations were made at Dunderlandsdalen in winter 1917–18. Two of the householders there died in 1916. A change of personnel making the observations may have been responsible for the data gap and for the anomalous 1919 data. Changes made to buildings or the recording site in 1917 or 1918 may have resulted in increased snow depths as a result of drifting. Maintaining a record of climatic extremes and their environmental consequences is important. Data must be accurate. In view of this, it would be sensible to regard the validity of the 370 cm Dunderlandsdalen maximum as doubtful.

挪威诺德兰的极深雪深记录是否可靠?

1919–20年冬季,邓德兰斯达林(Dunderlandsdalen)的雪深为370厘米,是挪威诺德兰(Nordland)站的最大降雪量。在1895年至1924年期间,那里的平均最大年价值为150.4厘米;在其他站点,其范围从38.5到190.1厘米。在1919–20年间,其他站点的最大值与Dunderlandsdalen的最大值之比特别低。一般来说,在诺德兰,该冬天的记录降水略高于30年平均值,但在邓德兰兹达林,则超过平均水平34%。1月26日至2月1日是Dunderlandsdalen以外的所有站点的干旱时期。在Dunderlandsdalen,记录为51.7 mm。从一月初到二月初,Dunderlandsdalen仅有一天没有降雪,但是在其他地方,只有几天没有降雪。1919–20年在Dunderlandsdalen降雪频率和降雪深度与诺德兰其他地区记录的值的差异与1895年至1924年其他冬季的关系形成对比。1917–18年冬季在Dunderlandsdalen没有观测到。1916年,那里的两个住户死亡。更换人员进行观测可能是造成数据缺口和1919年异常数据的原因。1917或1918年对建筑物或录音地点进行的更改可能会由于漂移而导致积雪深度增加。保持气候极端事件及其环境后果的记录非常重要。数据必须准确。鉴于此,将370厘米Dunderlandsdalen最大值的有效性视为可疑是明智的。
