We present a modeling approach t at couples information about snow cover duration from remote sensing with a distributed nergy balance model to calculate he spatial distribution of s ow ater equivalence (SWE) in a 1.2 km 2mountain basin atthe peak of the accumulation season. I situ measurements of incident solar radiation, incident longwave radiation, air temperature, relative humidity, and win...
introduction: snowmelt runoff plays an important role in providing water and agricultural resources, especially in mountainous areas. there are different methods to simulate the process of snowmelt. inter alia, degree-day model, based on temperature-index is more cited. snowmelt runoff model is a conceptual hydrological model to simulate and predict the daily flow of rivers in the mountainous b...
One of the clearest predictions from the IPCC is that we can expect much less snow cover due to global warming in the 21st century, especially in the lower alpine areas. In alpine ecosystems, snow accumulation in depressions gives rise to distinct snow-bed vegetation types, assumed to play a key role in ecosystem function. A delayed plant phenology yields high-quality forage in late summer for ...
Seasonal snow covers large land areas of the Earth. Information about the snow extent in these regions is important for climate studies and water resource management. A linear spectral mixture model for snow-covered forests (the SnowFor model) has previously been developed for flat terrain. The SnowFor model includes reflectance components for snow, trees and snow-free ground. In this paper, th...
The algorithms for estimating snow extent for the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) optimally use the 1.6-μm channel which is unavailable for MODIS on Aqua due to detector damage. As a test bed to demonstrate that Aqua band 6 can be restored, we chose the area surrounding Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks. In such rugged and difficult-to-access terrain, satellite im...
We present the first application of a distributed snow model (SnowModel) in the instrumented site of Pascua-Lama in the Dry Andes (2600-5630 m above sea level, 29◦ S). A model experiment was performed to assess the effect of wind on the snow cover patterns. A particular objective was to evaluate the role of blowing snow on the glacier formation. The model was run using the data from 11 weather ...
Wolverines (Gulo gulo) are one of the rarest carnivores in the contiguous United States. Effective population sizes in Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming, where most of the wolverines in the contiguous United States exist, were calculated to be 35 (credible limits, 28 52) suggesting low abundance. Landscape features that influence wolverine population substructure and gene flow are largely unknown. Re...
Daily fractional snow cover (FSC) products derived from optical sensors onboard low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites are often discontinuous, primarily due to prevalent cloud cover. To map the daily cloud-reduced FSC over China, we utilized clear-sky multichannel observations from the first-generation Chinese geostationary orbit (GEO) satellites (namely, the FY-2 series) by taking advantage of thei...
The accurate knowledge of sea ice parameters, including sea ice thickness and snow depth over the sea ice cover, are key to both climate studies and data assimilation in operational forecasts. Large-scale active and passive remote sensing is the basis for the estimation of these parameters. In traditional altimetry or the retrieval of snow depth with passive microwave sensing, although the sea ...
