Recent decreases in snow water storage in western North America

Katherine E. Hale et al.

Summary: Mountain snowpacks serve as natural water storage, but the Snow Storage Index (SSI) has shown a decrease in western North America since 1950 due to earlier snowmelt, spring rains, and reduced winter precipitation. The SSI measures the delay in water input from the timing of a melting snowpack, offering insights into hydrologic sensitivity to climate change and its implications for water resources and ecosystems.

High-resolution mapping of snow cover in montane meadows and forests using Planet imagery and machine learning

Kehan Yang et al.

Summary: Mountain snowpack is vital for forest and meadow ecosystems, which are being affected by global warming. However, existing snow cover datasets lack the necessary spatial resolution to accurately characterize snowpack heterogeneity in these ecosystems. To address this, we developed a machine learning model that uses high-resolution satellite imagery to generate snow-covered area (SCA) maps.

Snowmelt characterization from optical and synthetic-aperture radar observations in the La Joie Basin, British Columbia

Sara E. Darychuk et al.

Summary: This article presents a workflow to estimate the onset and duration of snowmelt in the La Joie Basin using the combination of Sentinel-1 SAR and optical data. SAR estimates the timing of snowpack saturation and the beginning of snowmelt, while multispectral imagery is used to determine the end of the snowmelt period. This approach shows potential for estimating snowmelt timing in ungauged basins and can be adapted to other alpine regions.

Wideband Backscattering From Alpine Snow Cover: A Full-Season Study

Reza Naderpour et al.

Summary: This article experimentally investigates the relationships between snow-ground state parameters and copol backscattering at a wide range of frequencies, finding an anticorrelation between snow wetness and backscattering coefficient. It assesses the relative strengths of the snow-ground system's primary scattering elements and how snow-ground SPs influence backscattering at different time scales. The study emphasizes the importance of multifrequency active microwave measurements for developing retrieval algorithms and understanding ongoing physical processes.

Interpreting Sentinel-1 SAR Backscatter Signals of Snowpack Surface Melt/Freeze, Warming, and Ripening, through Field Measurements and Physically-Based SnowModel

Jewell Lund et al.

Summary: Understanding the transition of a cold winter snowpack to a ripe phase that contributes to runoff is crucial for water resource management. C-band SAR technology can reliably detect meltwater in the snowpack, and the continuous imaging pattern provided by C-band SAR allows for diurnal investigations of snow melt.

Monitoring Wet Snow Over an Alpine Region Using Sentinel-1 Observations

Fatima Karbou et al.

Summary: This study aimed to monitor wet snow conditions, examine its variation over time, and study its distribution by considering terrain characteristics. It compared Sentinel-1 wet snow extent with independent snow and weather estimates, showing good agreements but also differences, especially in forested and glaciated areas where snow is underestimated. The study highlighted the importance of Sentinel-1 image time series for monitoring wet snow and identifying melt-out days in the French alpine areas.

Revisiting the Global Seasonal Snow Classification: An Updated Dataset for Earth System Applications

Matthew Sturm et al.

Summary: The article discusses a global seasonal snow classification system that has been revised using new datasets and methods to achieve higher resolution. Researchers utilized global datasets of air temperature, precipitation, and land cover, combined with a micro-meteorological model and European Space Agency data, to create an updated classification. This new high-resolution snow classification dataset is publicly available online and offers improvements and applications at a much higher resolution than previously used.

Energy and mass balance dynamics of the seasonal snowpack at two high-altitude sites in the Himalaya

Emmy E. Stigter et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of understanding snow dynamics in the hydrology of alpine catchments in the Himalaya. It emphasizes the intricate relationship between melt and refreezing on albedo sensitivity, the significance of meltwater refreezing, and the amount of net energy required to overcome the cold content of the snowpack. The results suggest that accurate simulation of mass balance in seasonal snowpacks in Himalayan catchments requires consideration of factors such as refreezing and cold content, going beyond simple temperature index models.

Time-series snowmelt detection over the Antarctic using Sentinel-1 SAR images on Google Earth Engine

Dong Liang et al.

Summary: The Antarctic ice sheet, sensitive to climate change, is threatened by the flow of inland glaciers and collapsing ice shelves. This study introduces a framework to extract freeze-thaw information at a continental scale using SAR data from Sentinel-1 satellites, allowing for accurate assessment of surface material loss and albedo change.

Mapping seasonal glacier melt across the Hindu Kush Himalaya with time series synthetic aperture radar (SAR)

Corey Scher et al.

Summary: The study utilized time series synthetic aperture radar imagery to analyze seasonal glacier melt dynamics in the Hindu Kush Himalayas region. It found that all glacier areas show some degree of melting, with durations spanning over two-thirds of the year at elevations below 4000 meters and nearly half of the year at elevations exceeding 7000 meters. These melt signals reflect broad-scale trends in glacier mass balance across the region.

A low-to-no snow future and its impacts on water resources in the western United States

Erica R. Siirila-Woodburn et al.

Summary: Anthropogenic climate change is decreasing seasonal snowpacks globally, with significant impacts on water resources, especially in the western United States. Projections show a decline of about 25% in snow water equivalent by 2050, with potential persistent low-to-no snow conditions in 35-60 years if greenhouse gas emissions continue unabated. These changes will alter groundwater and streamflow dynamics in the region.
