Airborne lidar and machine learning reveal decreased snow depth in burned forests [PDF]
Wildfires 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
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]
Snow 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.

Deriving Snow Depth From ICESat-2 Lidar Multiple Scattering Measurements
Snow is a crucial element in the Earth’s system, but snow depth and mass are very challenging to be measured globally. Here, we provide the theoretical foundation for deriving snow depth directly from space-borne lidar (ICESat-2) snow multiple scattering

NH-SWE: Northern Hemisphere Snow Water Equivalent dataset based on in situ snow depth time series [PDF]
Ground-based datasets of observed snow water equivalent (SWE) are scarce, while gridded SWE estimates from remote-sensing and climate reanalysis are unable to resolve the high spatial variability of snow on the ground.

Snow Depth Variations in Svalbard Derived from GNSS Interferometric Reflectometry
Snow plays a critical role in hydrological monitoring and global climate change, especially in the Arctic region. As a novel remote sensing technique, global navigation satellite system interferometric reflectometry (GNSS-IR) has shown great potential ...

Data‐Driven Bulldozer Blade Control for Autonomous Terrain Leveling
A simulation‐driven framework for autonomous bulldozer leveling is presented, combining high‐fidelity terramechanics simulation with a neural‐network‐based reduced‐order model. Gradient‐based optimization enables efficient, low‐level blade control that balances leveling quality and operation time.
