Winter soil respiration in a humid temperate forest: The roles of moisture, temperature, and snowpack [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Winter soil respiration at midlatitudes can comprise a substantial portion of annual ecosystem carbon loss. However, winter soil carbon dynamics in these areas, which are often characterized by shallow snow cover, are poorly understood due to infrequent ...

Georeferenced Snow Depth and Snow Water Equivalent Dataset (2025) from East Kazakhstan Region

open access: yesData
In this work, we present the Snow Depth and Snow Water Equivalent Dataset for specific areas located in the East Kazakhstan Region that can be exploited to monitor and understand water resource dynamics in mountain regions. The present dataset represents

General Report of the Researches of Snowpack Properties, Snowmelt Runoff and Evapotranspiration in Japan [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
A method was developed for estimating the distribution of snow and the snow water equivalent in Japan by combining LANDSAT data with the degree day method. A snow runoff model was improved and applied to the Okutadami River basin.

Application of Low-Cost UASs and Digital Photogrammetry for High-Resolution Snow Depth Mapping in the Arctic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The repeat acquisition of high-resolution snow depth measurements has important research and civil applications in the Arctic. Currently the surveying methods for capturing the high spatial and temporal variability of the snowpack are expensive, in ...

Changes in Snow Phenology from 1979 to 2016 over the Tianshan Mountains, Central Asia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Snowmelt from the Tianshan Mountains (TS) is a major contributor to the water resources of the Central Asian region. Thus, changes in snow phenology over the TS have significant implications for regional water supplies and ecosystem services.

Predicting snow depth with people

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1988
Meteorologists are using a technique based on human observations to calibrate a Doppler radar method of predicting how much snow will fall in major storms.In a new program sponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), several dozen volunteers will record information about the shape and size of snowflakes and measure the depth

Modelling the spatial variability of maximum mountain snow depth in Northern Norway

open access: yesNordia Geographical Publications, 2016
Snow depth is highly variant in wind-dominant mountain environments. The variation is especially high at local scales. Winter maximum snow depth influences the ground temperatures and the beginning of the growing season.

Assimilation of L-band interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) snow depth retrievals for improved snowpack quantification [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
The integration of snow hydrology models and remote sensing observations via data assimilation is a promising method to capture the dynamics of seasonal snowpacks at a high spatial resolution and to reduce uncertainty with respect to snow water resources.

Estimation of Sea Ice Thickness Distributions through the Combination of Snow Depth and Satellite Laser Altimetry Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Combinations of sea ice freeboard and snow depth measurements from satellite data have the potential to provide a means to derive global sea ice thickness values. However, large differences in spatial coverage and resolution between the measurements lead

What drives basin scale spatial variability of snowpack properties in northern Colorado? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study uses a combination of field measurements and Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) operational snow data to understand the drivers of snow density and snow water equivalent (SWE) variability at the basin scale (100s to 1000s km2 ...
