Estimation of Snowmelt Infiltration into Frozen Ground and Snowmelt Runoff in the Mogot Experimental Watershed in East Siberia
Understanding how spring runoff is generated in East Siberia during the spring thaw is important to predicting river flows. To evaluate the snowmelt runoff generated, a simple runoff model was developed. The model involves processes of water and energy balance within the snowpack and energy balance within soil, snowmelt infiltration into the frozen ground, and surface runoff. The model reproduc...
متن کاملFrozen Ground Monitoring Using Palsar/alos Data
Microwave remote sensing has shown proof of its effectiveness for frozen ground mapping due to the high difference of permittivity between frozen and unfrozen soil. However, the characterization of seasonal frozen ground still remains a problematic application. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) launched the Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) on the 24 of January 2006. This sat...
متن کاملBeyond frozen ground: Climate change and health.
Story by Sarah de Leeuw begin with those days of breastfeeding. But her daughters are certainly a recurring theme in her work: “A few months later when I finished off Bill McKibben’s Global Warming’s Terrifying New Math, I found myself curled up in the fetal position around my six month old. I hadn’t really realized we were on track to drastically exceed the goal of keeping climate change withi...
متن کاملThe Importance of Seasonally Frozen Ground (SFG) in Mountain Environments To Hydrological, Ecological, and Geomorphic Systems
OVERVIEW There has been little research on the importance of Seasonally Frozen Ground (SFG), including permafrost, to many of the major processes in mountain environments. One reason has been the difficulty in measuring and estimating the areal extent of surface frost that occurs under seasonal snowpacks. Here we present preliminary evidence from the Colorado Front Range suggesting that SFG has...
متن کاملSurface–Atmosphere Moisture Interactions in the Frozen Ground Regions of Eurasia
Climate models simulate an intensifying Arctic hydrologic cycle in response to climatic warming, however the role of surface-atmosphere interactions from degrading frozen ground is unclear in these projections. Using Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA) data in high-latitude Eurasia, we examine long-term variability in surface-atmosphere coupling as represente...
