Changes in seasonal snow water equivalent distribution in High Mountain Asia (1987 to 2009)
Snow meltwaters account for most of the yearly water budgets of many catchments in High Mountain Asia (HMA). We examine trends in snow water equivalent (SWE) using passive microwave data (1987 to 2009). We find an overall decrease in SWE in HMA, despite regions of increased SWE in the Pamir, Kunlun Shan, Eastern Himalaya, and Eastern Tien Shan. Although the average decline in annual SWE across ...
متن کاملDistribution of Maximum Annual Water Equivalent of Snow
For later development of design snow loads, the water equivalent of snow on the ground appears to be the best The appropriate climatological series for this is the winter Among many distributions investigated, the lognormal Distributions fitted to 140 stations provided data In southern areas of the United States, where snow does This requires the A contour map is provided of the mixture paramet...

متن کاملassessing of interpolation methods in order to snow water equivalent estimation
snow is one of the main components of hydrological cycle in most of mountainous basins. since collecting the snow data (e.g. snow water equivalent data) is very difficult and time consuming, some effort is necessary to develop methods to estimate spatially variation of snow depth distribution. in the present study, the at-site swe data of 14 stations located in the west of isfahan providence fo...
متن کاملCorrelation and Prediction of Snow Water Equivalent from Snow Sensors
Since 1982, under an agreement between the California Department of Water Resources and the USDA Forest Service, snow sensors have been installed and operated in Forest Service-administered wilderness areas in the Sierra Nevada of California. The sensors are to be removed by 2005 because of the premise that sufficient data will have been collected to allow "correlation" and, by implication, pre...
