LogOn: Satellites, Lasers Help Estimate Snowpack in Drought-Stricken Regions

For water managers in drought-stricken regions, accurate forecasts of water availability are critically important. Matt Dibble shows how remote sensing technology is helping in the Rocky Mountains in this edition of LogOn.

Snow is interesting. But it's so much more than snow. Snow becomes liquid water. And that liquid informs all kinds of things from farming to bridge building.

Cluster member McKenzie Skiles is among the community of experts who are working to be able to accurately measure how much water is in the snow that's blanketing mountain ranges all over the world.

Importance of Researching Snow Water Equivilencey

Sunday morning. Perfect time to sit back with a mug of warm, comforting something and read some of the 2022 #Arctic Report Card.

"Snow accumulation during the 2021/22 winter was moderately above average across the Arctic. Despite that, spring snow extent was below normal, consistent with the last 15 years."

Terrestrial Snow Cover

Many components of the Arctic land surface are directly influenced by snow cover from fall through spring, including the surface energy budget, ground thermal regime, permafrost, and terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems.

@mmullins i guess i’ve been a data wanderer. after grad school worked in restoration ecology as a wildlife refuge manager and as a research professor. was usually the person the other ecologists came to for quant help, though had my own focus in #WildlandFire and #SnowHydrology.
