, 2006 Over southern Canada maximum snow depth usually occurs in January or February, while the time of maximum accumulation occurs much later in mountain areas and in the Arctic. The main features of the map are the pronounced maximum in snow accumulation over the western Cordillera (British Columbia and Yukon), where snow depths can exceed several metres ...

Object-based ensemble estimation of snow depth and snow water equivalent over multiple months in Sodankylä, Finland [PDF]
The CryosphereSnowpack characteristics such as snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE) are widely studied in regions prone to heavy snowfall and long winters. These features are measured in the field via manual or automated observations and over larger spatial ...

Improved workflow for customized ICESat-2 ATL06 elevations captures seasonal mountain snow depths at sub-kilometer scale [PDF]
The CryosphereMountain snowpacks are a critical global water resource, providing freshwater to more than a billion people worldwide. Estimates of snow distribution across mountain watersheds are dependent on sparse in situ observations and spatio-temporally limited ...

On the Snow Scale for Measuring Maximum Snow Depth
Journal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 1968 A snow scale for measuring the maximum depth of accumulated snow in remote regions was developed.The snow scale consists of a wooden pole with 10 cm aluminium pins of 3 mm in diameter driven into the pole at 10 cm intervals on both sides of the pole. The pin is bent downward by the settling force of snow when it is covered with new snow of about 10 cm ...

An Influence of a Tree on Snow Depth
Journal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 1962 Snow depth was measured in two ways, one with a stick and the other with scales attached to deciduous trees, along the snow courses in the upper region of Tadami river, 1957. It was found that snow depth was less at within the distance of one to two meters from the root of a tree than at the further distance from it and that the difference was greater ...

Distribution of snow depth variability
Frontiers of Earth Science, 2018 Snow depth is the easiest snowpack property to measure in the field and is used to estimate the distribution of snow for quantifying snow storage. Often the mean of three snow depth measurements is used to represent snow depth at a location. This location is used as a proxy for an area, typically a digital elevation model (DEM) or remotely sensed pixel.

Snowpack observations from a circumnavigation of the Greenland Ice Sheet (spring 2014).
Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2016 We report the characteristics of the Greenland ice sheet snowpack, based on data collected during the first wind-propelled circumnavigation of the ice sheet, undertaken in spring 2014.
