Modeling the snow surface temperature with a one-layer energy balance snowmelt model [PDF]
Snow surface temperature is a key control on and result of dynamically coupled energy exchanges at the snow surface. The snow surface temperature is the result of the balance between external forcing (incoming radiation) and energy exchanges above the ...

COSIPY v1.3 – an open-source coupled snowpack and ice surface energy and mass balance model [PDF]
Glacier changes are a vivid example of how environmental systems react to a changing climate. Distributed surface mass balance models, which translate the meteorological conditions on glaciers into local melting rates, help to attribute and detect ...

A Comprehensive Overview of Single-Source and Dual-Source Energy Balance Algorithms for Estimating Actual Evapotranspiration [PDF]
Evapotranspiration estimation is one of the most important water balance components and involves various complexities. In general, energy balance models are divided into two categories: single-source and two-source models. Choosing a model to estimate ET
