Trends in Snow Cover Duration Across River Basins in High Mountain Asia From Daily Gap-Filled MODIS Fractional Snow Covered Area [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
High Mountain Asia (HMA) has the largest expanse of snow outside of the polar regions and it plays a critical role in climate and hydrology. In situ monitoring is rare due to terrain complexity and inaccessibility, making remote sensing the most ...

Dependence of surface albedo on snow cover duration and other snow parameters in Estonia

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 1995
The duration of snow cover, the state of surface, and the albedo in late winter to early spring are studied as climatic factors. A linear dependence of the surface albedo on the duration of snow cover has been found from the data recorded at Tartu ...

Interannual variability and trends in winter weather and snow conditions in Finnish Lapland [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2017
The interannual variability of the air temperature, precipitation and snow conditions were examined in the Finnish Arctic region based on data from the period 1946–2012.

Distribution and Attribution of Terrestrial Snow Cover Phenology Changes over the Northern Hemisphere during 2001–2020

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Snow cover phenology has exhibited dramatic changes in the past decades. However, the distribution and attribution of the hemispheric scale snow cover phenology anomalies remain unclear. Using satellite-retrieved snow cover products, ground observations,

Distance to a River Modifies Climate Legacy on Vegetation Growth in a Boreal Riparian Forest

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Inter-annual variability in growing season temperature and precipitation, together with snow coverage duration, determine vegetation growth in boreal ecosystems. However, little is known about the impact of concurrent and antecedent climate, particularly

The Change and Variability of Snow Cover in Kraków in a 100-Year Observation Series

open access: yesQuaestiones Geographicae, 2023
This article presents the results of research on the changes and variability of snow cover in Kraków in the 100-year period 1921/22–2020/21 and in its two sub-periods covering the years of the slow and rapid territorial, urban and industrial development ...

Intercomparison of Sentinel-2 and modelled snow cover maps in a high-elevation Alpine catchment

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology X, 2022
Modelling runoff generation in high-elevation Alpine catchments requires detailed knowledge on the spatio-temporal distribution of snow storage. With Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI), it is possible to map snow cover with a high temporal and ...

Understanding the Snow Cover Climatology over Turkey from ERA5-Land Reanalysis Data and MODIS Snow Cover Frequency Product

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
Understanding the distribution, patterns, and characteristics of snowfall and snow cover within a given region over extended periods is important. Snow climatology provides valuable insights into the seasonal and long-term variations in snowfall, helping
