Accurate snow phenology detection, including snow cover days (SCD), snow start date (SSD), and snow end date (SED), is increasingly important for understanding mountain hydrology such as snow heterogeneity and snowmelt seasonality.

Reliably flattened radar backscatter for wet snow mapping from wide-swath sensors
Retrieval of wet snow extent with high temporal resolution over large areas that include topography requires use of wide swath SAR and radiometric terrain correction to enable backscatter comparisons across different orbital tracks. We report on springtime wet snow mapping using a time series of Envisat ASAR wide swath (WS) images covering the Swiss ...

A. Modeled T‐t paths for samples in the northern Ibex Hills, showing steady cooling throughout much of the Cenozoic, until rapid Miocene cooling. B. Weighted mean paths for each sample in this study. Note that all show a rapid cooling event at or just after 10 Ma, which is interpreted to represent exhumation as a result of regional extenstion ...

In this study, we compared two sampling approaches to assess autumn freezing resistance. Our goal was to determine whether the commonly employed cutting method, which disrupts root‐tissue connectivity, provides a valid measure of true freezing resistance.

Temperature independent snow production [PDF]
Both the reliability of natural snow and the number of potential snow production days with traditional snowmaking equipment are decreasing due to a warmer climate. This is especially the case at lower altitudes. To maintain conditions suitable for winter

Historical observations and bias‐corrected CMIP6 projections reveal intensifying warm extremes, declining cold events and increasingly irregular precipitation patterns across Morocco. Future warming, particularly under SSP5‐8.5, produces an almost linear amplification of heat, aridity and hydrological stress, leading to longer droughts and more intense

Dynamic snow density for snow water equivalent retrieval
Snow water equivalent is the amount of water that would form if a pack of snow would melt in place. Snow water equivalent is an important variable in describing global seasonal snow cover.

This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

This paper examines the reliability level of the Eurocode’s partial factor design (PFD) method for steel frames subjected to snow load. This is motivated by the frequent damage and collapse of structures under heavy snowfall [1, 2 ...
