Estimation of Snow Water Equivelant Using a Parameterized Snow Scattering Model
Active microwave sensors, especially high-frequency radar systems, are highly sensitive to snow pack parameters, including Snow Water Equivalent (SWE), which is a crucial parameter in the studies of hydrology and climatology. For example, studies using Ku-band observations from scatterometer QuickSCAT and POLSCAT have shown significant radar backscattering responses on SWE variations. It has be...
متن کاملSnow and Earthquake Load Combination Considering Snow Accumulation
In certain parts of the USA, both earthquake and snow hazards may be significant. Turkstra’s rule is commonly used for load combinations. However, the rule may not be acceptable for structures that are exposed to both snow and earthquake loads that assume a significant level. In this paper, a hazard simulation computer program (HASP) is developed and Monte Carlo Simulation is performed to inves...
متن کاملRemote Sensing, Model-Derived and Ground Measurements of Snow Water Equivalent and Snow Density in Alaska
Snow water equivalent (SWE) is important for investigations of annual to decadal-scale changes in A and energy-water cycles. Passive microwave satellite-based retrieval algorithm estimates of SWE now sp three decades. SWE retrievals by the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for the Earth Ob (AMSR-E) onboard the NASA-Aqua satellite ended at October 2011. A critical parameter in the AM gorith...
متن کاملDetermining the Snow Coefficient in order to simulate the snow melting in the Shemshak Watershed Using the WetSpa Model
In mountainous regions, snow forms a part of the precipitation. Therefore, snow melting is an important process in hydrology and hydraulic in these areas that its role should be considered independently in runoff generation. The Shemshak watershed basin located in Tehran province was selected as the study area of this research to examine the efficiency of the WetSpa hydrologic model to simulate...
متن کاملSnow water equivalent estimation using blackbox optimization
Accurate measurements of snow water equivalent (SWE) is an important factor in managing water resources for hydroelectric power generation. SWE over a catchment area may be estimated via kriging on measures obtained by snow monitoring devices positioned at strategic locations. The question studied in this paper is to find the device locations that minimize the kriging interpolation error of the...
