Impacts of landscape and climatic factors on snow cover in the Altai Mountains, China
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2021 Snow properties and their changes are crucial to better understanding of hydrological processes, soil thermal regimes, and surface energy balances. Reliable data and information on snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE) are also crucial for water ...

Comparison of bulk snow density measurements using different methods
Advances in Climate Change ResearchSnow density is one of the basic properties used to describe snow cover characteristics, and it is critical for remote sensing retrieval, water resources assessment and modeling inputs. There are many instruments available to measure snow density in situ.

Observations of snowpack properties to evaluate ground-based microwave remote sensing [PDF]
, 2010 Active microwave radar has been shown to have great potential for estimating snow water equivalent (SWE) globally from space. To help evaluate optimal active microwave sensor configurations to observe SWE, we evaluated ground-based Frequency Modulated ...

Experimental Simulation of Wet-Snow Shedding from Sagged Cables [PDF]
The process of wet-snow shedding from overhead cables was simulated in cold-chamber experiments under different ambient conditions. The main objective of the study was to examine how cable sag influences the snow-shedding process. However, the effects of

Density of snow under the canopy of artificial spruce stands in the Middle Urals [PDF]
Сибирский лесной журналThe comparison of snow density in small open spaces adjacent to forest stands and under the canopy of spruce stands located on the macroslopes of the Middle Urals of the eastem end westem expositions was carried out. It was found that the density of snow

Spatially extensive estimates of annual accumulation in the dry snow zone of the Greenland Ice Sheet determined from radar altimetry [PDF]
, 2010 We present estimates of accumulation rate along a 200 km transect ranging in elevation from 2750 to 3150 m in the dry snow zone on the western slope of the Greenland Ice Sheet.
