Snow Depth and Snow Water Equivalent Estimation
2021Variation in regional and global snowfall significantly affects the ecological and climate systems, which is usually used for policy-making in water resource management and disaster prevention. The amount of snowfall is measured by two different parameters, snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE). SWE is defined as the product of snow depth and snow

Global Snow Water Equivalent Observations from Space
2022<p>Global snow water equivalent (SWE) data are required for understanding the role of snow in the Earth&#8217;s water, energy and carbon cycles, and are critical for informing water resource and snow-related hazards. While exciting progress has been made in recent decades, there are currently no global SWE data at the required ...

Towards ML-driven Snow Water Equivalence Prediction
2022With recent trends in climate change, access to water derived from snowpack runoff is decreasing, affecting the millions of people whose livelihoods depend on it. While scientists often have historical Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) data, it is neither easy to estimate for the casual observer, nor is it accessible.

Analysis of GPR Data for Snow Water Equivalent
70th EAGE Conference and Exhibition incorporating SPE EUROPEC 2008, 2008GPR permits to map over large the thickness and density of snow pack: these parameters are required when the snow water equivalent has to be estimated. The results of GPR , conducted on a slope in the Alps in Northern Italy, are discussed. The data acquisition along several profiles was repeated in different period of the winter season.

Snow water equivalent estimation by microwave radiometry
Cold Regions Science and Technology, 1982Abstract Snow water equivalent (SWE) is one of the most important parameters for accurate prediction of snowmelt runoff. Conventionally, SWE is monitored using observations made at widely scattered points in or around specific watersheds. Remote sensors, which provide data with better spatial and temporal coverage, can be used to improve the SWE ...

The Canadian boreal snow water equivalent band
Atmosphere-Ocean, 2006Abstract Satellite and conventional snow water equivalent (SWE) dataseis reveal a well‐defined zone of high winter season SWE (>100 mm) that extends across the northern boreal forest of Canada. SWE coefficient of variation (CV) patterns derived from a monthly averaged (1978–2002) passive microwave derived time series show a high degree of interannual ...

Determining snow water equivalent by acoustic sounding
Hydrological Processes, 2007AbstractThe possibility of determining snow water equivalent (SWE) by the use of an acoustic impulse was assessed at two field locations in Saskatchewan and British Columbia, Canada. These sites represent cold windswept prairie and temperate deep mountain snowcovers.

CETB Snow Water Equivalent User Documentation
This document describes Snow Water Equivalent files derived from the Calibrated Passive Microwave Daily EASE-Grid 2.0 Brightness Temperature (CETB) Earth System Data Record (ESDR) product. SWE data are available for the complete historical record of the CETBv1 data, and updated for currently operating SSMIS sensors in near real-time (approximately 1–2 ...Brodzik, Mary J., Lewis, G.

Retrieval of Snow Water Equivalent by Gamma
IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019Snow cover can attenuate gamma rays in soil, take advantage of this property, the surface snow water equivalent over a large range can be measured more accurately, and it has the advantage of not destroying the surface characteristics. Considering the disturbance of soil moisture to the measurement results and the geographical characteristics of the ...
