Dominance of grain size impacts on seasonal snow albedo at deforested sites in New Hampshire [PDF]

, 2017
Snow cover serves as a major control on the surface energy budget in temperate regions due to its high reflectivity compared to underlying surfaces.

SNOWMIP2: An evaluation of forest snow process simulation [PDF]

, 2009
The Northern Hemisphere has large areas that are forested and seasonally snow covered. Compared with open areas, forest canopies strongly influence interactions between the atmosphere and snow on the ground by sheltering the snow from wind and solar ...

Spatio-temporal influence of tundra snow properties on Ku-band (17.2 GHz) backscatter [PDF]

, 2015
During the 2010/11 boreal winter, a distributed set of backscatter measurements was collected using a ground-based Ku-band (17.2 GHz) scatterometer system at 26 open tundra sites.

Multi-component avalanches for rock- and ice-falls to potential debris flow transition modelling [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Rock/ice avalanches are complex gravitational flows involving three important physicalprocesses: entrainment, phase-changes, and flow transitions. The basic complexity of modelling rock/ice avalanches lies in the fact that the flow is a mixture of rock ...

Health and sustainability of glaciers in High Mountain Asia

Nature Communications, 2021
Glaciers in High Mountain Asia are a key water resource. The authors use remote sensing data and a regional implementation of the continuity equation to quantify glacier ablation and accumulation rates for 2000–2016, and establish current climatic ...
