Spatiotemporal Variation of Snow Cover and Its Response to Climate Change in the Source Region of the Yangtze River, China

Atmosphere, 2022
In the context of global warming, snow cover changes have an extremely important impact on the hydrological cycle and the redistribution of water resources in arid and semi-arid regions.

Dynamic identification of snow phenology in the Northern Hemisphere [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Snow phenology characterizes the cyclical changes in snow and has become an important indicator of climate change in recent decades. Changes in snow phenology can significantly impact climate and hydrological conditions.

The snow and the willows : the ecological responses of the alpine dwarf shrub "Salix herbacea" to climate change [PDF]

, 2014
Current changes in shrub abundance in alpine and arctic tundra ecosystems are primarily driven by warming, changes in snow cover time and shifts in biotic interactions.

Disentangling remotely-sensed plant phenology and snow seasonality at northern Europe using MODIS and the plant phenology index

, 2017
Land surface phenology is frequently derived from remotely sensed data. However, over regions with seasonal snow cover, remotely-sensed land surface phenology may be dominated by snow seasonality, rather than showing true plant phenology.

Evaluation of E3SM land model snow simulations over the western United States [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2023
Seasonal snow has crucial impacts on climate, ecosystems, and humans, but it is vulnerable to global warming. The land component (ELM) of the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) mechanistically simulates snow processes from accumulation, canopy ...

Sea ice and snow phenology in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago from 1997 to 2018

Arctic Science, 2021
The multiple islands and narrow channels that form the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA) complicate snow/ice monitoring, as coarse resolution satellite observations are unable to resolve smaller-scale changes in snow/ice cover. We present the first study

Impact of Snowpack on the Land Surface Phenology in the Tianshan Mountains, Central Asia

Remote Sensing, 2022
The accumulation and ablation processes of seasonal snow significantly affect the land surface phenology in a mountainous ecosystem. However, the ability of snow to regulate the alpine land surface phenology in the arid regions is not well described in ...

Observed earlier start of the growing season from middle to high latitudes across the Northern Hemisphere snow-covered landmass for the period 2001–2014

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Vegetation phenology in spring has received much attention for its importance to terrestrial ecosystem carbon exchange and climate–biosphere interactions studies.

Using by‐catch data from wildlife surveys to quantify climatic parameters and timing of phenology for plants and animals using camera traps

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Gaining a better understanding of global environmental change is an important challenge for conserving biodiversity. Shifts in phenology are an important consequence of environmental change.

Relative influence of timing and accumulation of snow on alpine land surface phenology [PDF]

, 2018
Timing and accumulation of snow are among the most important phenomena influencing land surface phenology in mountainous ecosystems. However, our knowledge on their influence on alpine land surface phenology is still limited, and much remains unclear as ...
