Snow stratigraphic heterogeneity within ground-based passive microwave radiometer footprints: implications for emission modeling [PDF]

, 2014
Two-dimensional measurements of snowpack properties (stratigraphic layering, density, grain size and temperature) were used as inputs to the multi-layer Helsinki University of Technology (HUT) microwave emission model at a centimeter-scale horizontal ...

Performances of three representative snow depth products originated from passive microwave sensors over the Mongolian Plateau

International Journal of Digital Earth
Snow depth (SD) plays a critical role in evaluating snow disasters, simulating hydrological processes and maintaining surface radiation balance etc. This study presents the first comprehensive evaluation of three SD products—SD-AMSR2, SD-Globsnow, and SD-

Reduced fraction of young water in Alpine catchments with increased seasonal snow cover [PDF]

, 2020
<p>Effective water resource management can benefit from estimations of when water entered the catchment and how long it takes to flow to the outlet. In this context, the so-called young water fraction (F<sub>yw</sub>) based on seasonal input and output tracer cycles is becoming increasingly used as ...

Legacy of snow cover on alpine landscapes

Communications Earth & Environment
Over the past four decades, seasonal snow cover has declined rapidly in temperate alpine regions. However, the fine-scale dynamics of snowmelt preceding the ongoing warming period remain largely unknown, limiting our understanding of the long-term ...

FSC-USNet: Fractional Snow Cover Retrieval on the Tibetan Plateau by Integrating Improved Attention Mechanisms

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Snow on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is not only a freshwater resource for the major rivers in Asia but also plays a significant role in adjusting temperature by reflecting solar radiation.
