Effect of Snow Cover on Detecting Spring Phenology from Satellite-Derived Vegetation Indices in Alpine Grasslands

Remote Sensing, 2022
The accurate estimation of phenological metrics from satellite data, especially the start of season (SOS), is of great significance to enhance our understanding of trends in vegetation phenology under climate change at regional or global scales. However,

Combined Use of Multiple Cloud‐Free Snow Cover Products in China and Its High‐Mountain Region: Implications From Snow Cover Identification to Snow Phenology Detection

Water Resources Research
Accurate snow phenology detection, including snow cover days (SCD), snow start date (SSD), and snow end date (SED), is increasingly important for understanding mountain hydrology such as snow heterogeneity and snowmelt seasonality.

Observed contrast changes in snow cover phenology in northern middle and high latitudes from 2001-2014. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2015
Quantifying and attributing the phenological changes in snow cover are essential for meteorological, hydrological, ecological, and societal implications. However, snow cover phenology changes have not been well documented.

Spring temperature and snow cover climatology drive the advanced springtime phenology (1991-2014) in the European Alps [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2021
Shifts in phenology are important traces of climate change affecting mountainous ecosystems. We present an analysis of changes in spring phenology using a suite of Earth observation based parameters, that is, start of season (SOS), snow cover extent and ...

Phenological Responses to Snow Seasonality in the Qilian Mountains Is a Function of Both Elevation and Vegetation Types

Remote Sensing, 2022
In high-elevation mountains, seasonal snow cover affects land surface phenology and the functioning of the ecosystem. However, studies regarding the long-term effects of snow cover on phenological changes for high mountains are still limited.

RESPONSE OF ALPINE GRASSLAND VEGETATION PHENOLOGY TO SNOW ACCUMULATION AND MELT IN NAMCO BASIN [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018
Snow/ice accumulation and melt, as a vital part of hydrological processes, is close related with vegetation activities. Taking Namco basin for example, based on multisource remote sensing data and the ground observation data of temperature and ...
