Snow cover in the Siberian forest-steppe [PDF]

open access: yes
A study is made of the snow cover on an experimental agricultural station in Mariinsk in the winter of 1945 to 1946. Conditions of snow cover formation, and types and indicators of snow cover are discussed.

Seasonal drivers of plant–soil–microbial community structure and functions in Western Himalayan grasslands, Pakistan

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Plant species richness was greater in summer in both alpine and subalpine grassland ecosystems. Soil moisture demonstrates significant positive correlations with soil organic carbon and total nitrogen across seasonal periods. Microbial α‐diversity peaks during summer but maintains functional stability across seasons.

Spatio-Temporal Change of Snow Cover and Its Response to Climate over the Tibetan Plateau Based on an Improved Daily Cloud-Free Snow Cover Product

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2014
Using new, daily cloud-free snow-cover products, this study examines snow cover dynamics and their response to climate change. The results demonstrate that the daily cloud-free snow-cover products not only posses the advantages of the AMSR-E (unaffected

MODIS Snow Cover Mapping Decision Tree Technique: Snow and Cloud Discrimination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Accurate mapping of snow cover continues to challenge cryospheric scientists and modelers. The Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) snow data products have been used since 2000 by many investigators to map and monitor snow cover extent ...

Higher Education Governance as a Mediator of Movements Toward Justice

open access: yesNew Directions for Higher Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This chapter explores the intersection of higher education governance and social movements, focusing on how governance actors respond to equity‐focused demands. Integrating scholarship from governance and social movement theory, we develop a framework to analyze the conditions under which actors can adopt or resist social change initiatives ...

Asymmetric Information With Multiple Risks: The Case of the Chilean Private Health Insurance Market

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We extend the Rothshild and Stiglitz (1976) model to two sources of risk –inpatient and outpatient risk– to better proxy real‐world health insurance markets. We uncover an interesting theoretical possibility: Take individuals A and B, who are low risks in, say, the inpatient dimension but A is riskier in the outpatient dimension.

An operational application of satellite snow cover observations, northwest United States [PDF]

open access: yes
LANDSAT-1 imagery showing extent of snow cover was collected and is examined for the 1973 and 1974 snowmelt seasons for three Columbia River Basins. Snowlines were mapped and the aerial snow cover was determined using satellite data.
