Temporal and spatial variability in snow cover over the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China, from 2001 to 2015 [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Xinjiang, China, is a typical arid and semi-arid region of Central Asia that significantly lacks freshwater resources, and the surface runoff in this region is mainly supplied by mountain glacier and snow cover meltwater.

Development of Snow Cover Frequency Maps from MODIS Snow Cover Products
Remote Sensing, 2022 With a decade scale record of global snow cover extent (SCE) at up to 500 m from the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), the dynamics of snow cover can be mapped at local to global scales.

IMPROVED ON SNOW COVER EXTRACTION IN MOUNTAINOUS AREAS BASED ON MULTI-FACTOR NDSI DYNAMIC THRESHOLD [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022 Snow cover is one of the most active elements of the cryosphere and plays an important role in the surface radiation budget and water balance. Optical satellite remote sensing has become an important tool for snow identification and monitoring.

Variation of snow cover in the Nyang River basin of southeastern Tibetan Plateau, China
Journal of Water and Climate Change, 2021 Snow cover is highly sensitive to global climate change and strongly influences the climate at global and regional scales. Because of limited in situ observations, snow cover dynamics in the Nyang River basin (NRB) have been examined in few studies. Five

An improvement of snow/cloud discrimination from machine learning using geostationary satellite data
International Journal of Digital Earth, 2022 Snow and cloud discrimination is a main factor contributing to errors in satellite-based snow cover. To address the error, satellite-based snow cover performs snow reclassification tests on the cloud pixels of the cloud mask, but the error still remains.
