Evaluating Wind Fields for Use in Basin-Scale Distributed Snow Models

Dylan S. Reynolds et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of different wind field data sources and downscaling schemes on simulating mountain snow depth, finding that using 3 km HRRR data downscaled with respect to terrain produces the best match with airborne LiDAR observations of snow depth. Additionally, modeling wind fields at 100 and 50 m resolutions does not lead to improvements in simulated snow depth compared to modeling at a 150 m resolution. Future research should focus on comparing suspension schemes in blowing snow models and exploring wind downscaling schemes of intermediate complexity.

Case Study of Blowing Snow Impacts on the Antarctic Peninsula Lower Atmosphere and Surface Simulated With a Snow/Ice Enhanced WRF Model

Liping Luo et al.

Summary: The study utilized a snow/ice enhanced WRF-ice model to analyze the meteorological conditions during a strong cyclone event over the Antarctic Peninsula in 2017, accurately reproducing the evolution of the cyclone and simulating near-surface conditions in agreement with observations. Numerical simulations indicated that blowing snow sublimation can have significant effects on the lower atmosphere, leading to moistening and cooling in dry air, while in warm and humid areas, cloud enhancement by blowing snow can result in varying surface temperatures due to cloud radiative forcings.

Applying a Physically Based Blowing Snow Diagnostic Parameterization to Improve Wintertime Visibility Forecasts in the WRF Model

Theodore W. Letcher et al.

Summary: This study explored the use of a physically based blowing snow model to improve weather visibility forecasts during a significant blowing snow event in the United States. The model significantly enhanced visibility predictions and corresponded well with satellite imagery. The study demonstrates the potential of the blowing snow diagnostic model to aid weather forecasters in identifying blowing snow risks and improving forecast accuracy.

Sensitivity of the surface energy budget to drifting snow as simulated by MAR in coastal Adelie Land, Antarctica

Louis Le Toumelin et al.

Summary: The study found that drifting snow significantly impacts the near-surface atmosphere by cooling the low atmosphere, increasing relative humidity, and reducing heat exchanges at the surface. Despite modifying surface-atmosphere interactions, drifting snow has minimal overall effect on the total surface energy budget.

Decision tree-based detection of blowing snow events in the European Alps

Zhipeng Xie et al.

Summary: This study investigates the potential of using decision tree models to detect blowing snow in the European Alps. Results show that the maximum wind speed is the most influential predictor of classification accuracy, and including more predictor variables improves overall accuracy. While both site-specific and site-independent DTMs show good ability in detecting blowing snow, their spatiotemporal transferability may be limited by variations in wind speed distribution between stations.
