Meteo_Kueblis

Data of the traditional manual profiles for the locations Weissfluhjoch, Klosters and Küblis. For the location of Küblis there are no traditional manual profile data.  We provided the data as both PDF and .CAAML format (See https://niviz.org/  or http://caaml.org/Schemas/V5.0/Profiles/SnowProfileIACS/CAAMLv5_SnowProfileIACS.pdf). Moreover, we added LWC and density profiles when available (all locations).
