EVALUATING THE CONSISTENCY OF REMOTE SENSING BASED SNOW DEPTH PRODUCTS IN ARID ZONE OF WESTERN CHINA [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012
Snow cover is a sensitive indicator of global climate change. Among various snow cover parameters, snow depth which can indicate snow accumulation is essential for retrieving snow water equivalent.

Experimental Investigation of Snow Accumulations on Two-Span Single-Pitched Roofs Based on a New Similarity Criterion

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Uneven snow distribution plays a main role in the collapse of two-span single-pitched roofs because of the intensified snow accumulation in the valleys and eaves.

A reliability assessment of physical vulnerability of reinforced concrete walls loaded by snow avalanches [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Abstract. Snow avalanches are a threat to many kinds of elements (human beings, communication axes, structures, etc.) in mountain regions. For risk evaluation, the vulnerability assessment of civil engineering structures such as buildings and dwellings exposed to avalanches still needs to be improved.

Enhancing Soil and Water Assessment Tool Snow Prediction Reliability with Remote-Sensing-Based Snow Water Equivalent Reconstruction Product for Upland Watersheds in a Multi-Objective Calibration Process

open access: yesWater, 2020
Precipitation occurs in two basic forms defined as liquid state and solid state. Different from rain-fed watershed, modeling snow processes is of vital importance in snow-dominated watersheds.

Assessing the key concerns in snow storage: a case study for China [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Snow security plays a crucial role in ensuring the success of winter sports events and supporting the ski industry. One effective approach to enhancing snow reliability is through snow storage.

Harnessing the Reactivity of Sulfinate Salts With Cystine: An Umpolung Approach to Residue‐Specific Peptide Modification

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
While cysteine is widely employed as a nucleophilic handle for peptide modification, the electrophilicity of the oxidized form, cystine, is rarely exploited. This study describes a mild, photochemical coupling of sulfinate salts with peptide disulfides.

Changes in Snow Depth, Snow Cover Duration, and Potential Snowmaking Conditions in Austria, 1961–2020—A Model Based Approach

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
We used the spatially distributed and physically based snow cover model SNOWGRID-CL to derive daily grids of natural snow conditions and snowmaking potential at a spatial resolution of 1 × 1 km for Austria for the period 1961–2020 validated against ...

Snow Tracking and Trapping Harvest as Reliable Sources for Inferring Abundance: A 9-year Comparison [PDF]

open access: yesNortheastern Naturalist, 2015
Abstract Trapping harvest and snow tracking are frequently used to infer population dynamics, yet there have been few evaluations of these indices. We developed population indices for Martes americana (American Marten), Mustela spp. (weasels), and Tamiasciurus hudsonicus (American Red Squirrel) from 9 years of snow-tracking data in eastern Canada.
