Evaluation of VIIRS and MODIS Snow Cover Fraction in High-Mountain Asia Using Landsat 8 OLI

Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2021
We present the first application of the Snow Covered Area and Grain size model (SCAG) to the Visible Infrared imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) and assess these retrievals with finer‐resolution fractional snow cover maps from Landsat 8 Operational Land ...

Application of MODIS land surface temperature in snow climatology studies, Case Study: Central Alborz Basins [PDF]

Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2023
The snow budget in mountainous river basins reacts sensitively to temperature fluctuations. Therefore, the desired temperature increase due to climate change could significantly affect the snow budget in the future.

A Practical Approach to Improve the MODIS MCD43A Products in Snow-Covered Areas

Journal of Remote Sensing, 2023
The MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MCD43A products have been extensively applied in the remote sensing field, but recent researchers have demonstrated that these products still had the potential to be further improved by using the latest development of the kernel-driven model [RossThick-LiSparseReciprocal-Snow (RTLSRS)] in snow ...

Reducing hydrological modelling uncertainty by using MODIS snow cover data and a topography-based distribution function snowmelt model

, 2021
This work aims to describe how MODIS snow cover maps can be used to reduce uncertainty in hydrological modelling carried out by means of a topography-based distribution function snowmelt model.

The Application of SWAT Model and Remotely Sensed Products to Characterize the Dynamic of Streamflow and Snow in a Mountainous Watershed in the High Atlas

Sensors, 2023
Snowfall, snowpack, and snowmelt are among the processes with the greatest influence on the water cycle in mountainous watersheds. Hydrological models may be significantly biased if snow estimations are inaccurate.

An improved Terra–Aqua MODIS snow cover and Randolph Glacier Inventory 6.0 combined product (MOYDGL06*) for high-mountain Asia between 2002 and 2018 [PDF]

Earth System Science Data, 2020
Snow is a significant component of the ecosystem and water resources in high-mountain Asia (HMA). Therefore, accurate, continuous, and long-term snow monitoring is indispensable for the water resources management and economic development.

Snow Cover Reconstruction in the Brunswick Peninsula, Patagonia, Derived from a Combination of the Spectral Fusion, Mixture Analysis, and Temporal Interpolation of MODIS Data

Remote Sensing, 2023
Several methods based on satellite data products are available to estimate snow cover properties, each one with its pros and cons. This work proposes and implements a novel methodology that integrates three main processes applied to MODIS satellite data ...

Characteristics of snow cover in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau based on GF-1 and applicability of MODIS snow cover products

Progress in Geography, 2021
: The southeastern Tibetan Plateau is high in elevation, with complex terrain and high cloud cover. It is very important to understand the characteristics of the snow cover distribution in this area for railway snow disaster prevention.
