Remote Sensing Phenology of Antarctic Green and Red Snow Algae Using WorldView Satellites [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Snow algae are an important group of terrestrial photosynthetic organisms in Antarctica, where they mostly grow in low lying coastal snow fields. Reliable observations of Antarctic snow algae are difficult owing to the transient nature of their blooms and the logistics involved to travel and work there.

Ecological Indicators, 2021 Vegetation phenology has a profound impact on soil and water conservation and biogeochemical cycles, while its relationship with snow parameters has not been well addressed for parts of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP).

Ecosphere, 2023 Climate change, including both increasing temperatures and changing snow regimes, is progressing rapidly in the Arctic, leading to changes in plant phenology and in the seasonal patterns of plant properties, such as tissue nitrogen (N) content and ...

Evaluation of E3SM land model snow simulations over the western United States [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Seasonal snow has crucial impacts on climate, ecosystems, and humans, but it is vulnerable to global warming. The land component (ELM) of the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) mechanistically simulates snow processes from accumulation, canopy ...

Relative Influence of Timing and Accumulation of Snow on Alpine Land Surface Phenology [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2018 AbstractTiming and accumulation of snow are among the most important phenomena influencing land surface phenology in mountainous ecosystems. However, our knowledge on their influence on alpine land surface phenology is still limited, and much remains unclear as to which snow metrics are most relevant for studying this interaction.

Impact of Snowpack on the Land Surface Phenology in the Tianshan Mountains, Central Asia
Remote Sensing, 2022 The accumulation and ablation processes of seasonal snow significantly affect the land surface phenology in a mountainous ecosystem. However, the ability of snow to regulate the alpine land surface phenology in the arid regions is not well described in ...

Sea ice and snow phenology in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago from 1997 to 2018
Arctic Science, 2021 The multiple islands and narrow channels that form the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA) complicate snow/ice monitoring, as coarse resolution satellite observations are unable to resolve smaller-scale changes in snow/ice cover. We present the first study

Movement Ecology, 2022 Background Migration is a widespread strategy among ungulates to cope with seasonality. Phenology, especially in seasonally snow-covered landscapes featuring “white waves” of snow accumulation and “green waves” of plant green-up, is a phenomenon that ...

Declining snow cover may affect spring phenological trend on the Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 Zhang et al. (1) report that the Tibetan Plateau experienced a continuous advancing start of green-up date (SOS) from 1982 to 2011 based on the merged Global Inventory Modeling and Mapping Studies (GIMMS)-based with Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [Systeme Pour l’Observation de la Terre vegetation (SPOT-VGT)]-based SOSs.
