Changes in extreme nival conditions in Poland during the second half of the 20th century

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2008
The two main objectives of this study are: 1. to assess the scale of extreme nival conditions in Poland; 2. to provide a fragmentary, regional verification of the IPCC thesis of the increasing frequency of extreme atmospheric phenomena during recent ...

Deriving Snow Cover Metrics for Alaska from MODIS

Remote Sensing, 2015
Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) daily snow cover products provide an opportunity for determining snow onset and melt dates across broad geographic regions; however, cloud cover and polar darkness are limiting factors at higher ...

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

Remote 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

A New Retrieval Algorithm of Fractional Snow over the Tibetan Plateau Derived from AVH09C1

Remote Sensing
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

Validation of the SNOWPACK model and reconstruction of multidecade snow climatology at Ram Mountain (Alberta, Canada) forced with NARR data

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
In remote Canada, sparse meteorological stations hinder reliable snow data collection, especially for assessing historical records. Yet, these data are crucial to evaluate the effect of climate change on ecosystems and species.

Instant Response of Tibetan Plateau Surface Albedo to Snow Coverage and Depth in Snow Season

Geophysical Research Letters
Tibetan Plateau (TP) snow cover is featured by sub‐seasonal changes, affecting weather and climate in surrounding and downstream areas. Previous studies emphasize the effect of background atmospheric circulation on rapid changes of TP snow cover as a ...
