A Sensitivity Study of Daytime Net Radiation during Snowmelt to Forest Canopy and Atmospheric Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the dependence of net radiation at snow surfaces under forest canopies on the overlying canopy density. The daily sum of positive values of net radiation is used as an index of the snowmelt rate. ...
Melting of Snow Cover in a Tropical Mountain Environment in Bolivia: Processes and Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To determine the physical processes involved in the melting and disappearance of transient snow cover in nonglacierized tropical areas, the CROCUS snow model, interactions between Soil?Biosphere?Atmosphere (ISBA) land ...
Spatial Variability of Shortwave Irradiance for Snowmelt in Forests
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The spatial variation of melt energy can influence snow cover depletion rates and in turn be influenced by the spatial variability of shortwave irradiance to snow. The spatial variability of shortwave irradiance during ...
