Long‐term trends (1958–2017) in snow cover duration and depth in the Pyrenees [PDF]
International Journal of Climatology, 2020 AbstractThis study investigated the temporal variability and changes in snow cover duration and the average snow depth from December to April in the Pyrenees at 1,500 and 2,100 m a.s.l. for the period 1958–2017. This is the first such analysis for the entire mountain range using SAFRAN‐Crocus simulations run for this specific purpose. The SAFRAN‐Crocus
