Comparison of passive microwave remote-sensing snow-depth products on Arctic sea ice
Polar Research, 2019 Changes in snow cover on the surface of Arctic sea ice affect the energy balance between the atmosphere and the ocean and play a vital role in the global climate system.

Snow Depth and Snow Density at Resolute, Northwest Territories [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 1960 Abstract Observations of the snow depth at 21 sites at Resolute were made twice weekly during the winter of 1957–58. As a result of these observations, and of other observations on snow made for the National Research Council, it is shown that the snow depth and the water content of the snow did not continue to ...

Remote Sensing, 2016 Snow on Antarctic sea ice plays a key role for sea ice physical processes and complicates retrieval of sea ice thickness using altimetry. Current methods of snow depth retrieval are based on satellite microwave radiometry, which perform best for dry ...

Tree canopy and snow depth relationships at fine scales with terrestrial laser scanning [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2021 Understanding the impact of tree structure on snow depth and extent is important in order to make predictions of snow amounts and how changes in forest cover may affect future water resources.

Spatial modeling of extreme snow depth
The Annals of Applied Statistics, 2011 The spatial modeling of extreme snow is important for adequate risk management in Alpine and high altitude countries. A natural approach to such modeling is through the theory of max-stable processes, an infinite-dimensional extension of multivariate extreme value theory.

Airborne lidar and machine learning reveal decreased snow depth in burned forests [PDF]
The CryosphereWildfires are increasingly burning higher in elevations well into the seasonal snow zone, altering snow accumulation and melt dynamics. However, limited spatially distributed observations throughout the full snow season have constrained our understanding

Sub-kilometre scale distribution of snow depth on Arctic sea ice from Soviet drifting stations
Journal of Glaciology, 2022 The sub-kilometre scale distribution of snow depth on Arctic sea ice impacts atmosphere-ice fluxes of energy and mass, and is of importance for satellite estimates of sea-ice thickness from both radar and lidar altimeters.

Estimation of snow depth from AMSR-2 based on an AutoML method over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau [PDF]
The CryosphereSnow depth is a crucial parameter for describing the spatiotemporal variations of snow cover, and passive microwave snow depth products (10–25 km) are widely used for monitoring snow depth changes.

Mapping snow depth within a tundra ecosystem using multiscale observations and Bayesian methods [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 This paper compares and integrates different strategies to characterize the variability of end-of-winter snow depth and its relationship to topography in ice-wedge polygon tundra of Arctic Alaska.
