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

Urbanization may alter bird foraging. Austral Parakeets (Enicognathus ferrugineus) in Patagonia rely on introduced plants in urban areas, especially in winter, despite preferring natives in the wild. This seasonal reliance on introduced species highlights urbanization trade‐offs and underscores the need to manage green areas with native plants to ...

A New Retrieval Algorithm of Fractional Snow over the Tibetan Plateau Derived from AVH09C1
Snow cover products are primarily derived from the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) and Advanced Very-High-Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) datasets. MODIS achieves both snow/non-snow discrimination and snow cover fractional retrieval, while

Optimizing Executive Cash Bonuses: The Nonlinear Impact of Executive Cash Bonuses and Strategic Fit
ABSTRACT This study examines how aligning executive cash bonuses with firm strategic orientation influences firm performance. While prior research mainly focuses on stock‐based incentives and linear effects, we address critical gaps by analyzing cash bonuses and exploring nonlinear relationships using polynomial regression and response surface analysis.

Acting authentically: Using play to cultivate authentic interrelating in role performance
Summary Research is increasingly demonstrating that authenticity and human connection are fundamental and interrelated human needs. However, organizational roles often constrain authenticity and connection in workplace interactions, especially roles that are highly scripted.

Strategies for using remotely sensed data in hydrologic models [PDF]
Present and planned remote sensing capabilities were evaluated. The usefulness of six remote sensing capabilities (soil moisture, land cover, impervious area, areal extent of snow cover, areal extent of frozen ground, and water equivalent of the snow ...

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

Estimating water resources is important for regional climate impact analysis and risk estimation. The Middle East and Central Asia have largely reached the limit of sustainably usable water across their river basins and ecosystems. Strategies designed to mitigate environmental risks require a reliable estimation of water availability trends.
