A Bayesian spatial assimilation scheme for snow coverage observations in a gridded snow model
A spatial probability distribution of the variables in a parametric snow depletion curve (SDC) is tailored to the assimilation of satellite snow cover data into a gridded hydrological model. The assimilation is based on Bayes’ theorem, in which the proposed distribution represents the a priori information about the SDC variables. From the prior 5 gridded maps of snow storage and accumulated mel...
متن کاملAssimilation ofMODIS snow cover through the Data Assimilation Research Testbed and the Community Land Model version 4
To improve snowpack estimates in Community Land Model version 4 (CLM4), the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) snow cover fraction (SCF) was assimilated into the Community Land Model version 4 (CLM4) via the Data Assimilation Research Testbed (DART). The interface between CLM4 and DART is a flexible, extensible approach to land surface data assimilation. This data assimilatio...
متن کاملAssimilation of MODIS Snow Cover Fraction Observations into the NASA Catchment Land Surface Model
The NASA Catchment land surface model (CLSM) is the land model component used for the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA). Here, the CLSM versions of MERRA and MERRA-Land are evaluated using snow cover fraction (SCF) observations from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). Moreover, a computationally-efficient empirical scheme is designed ...
متن کاملSnow Service Central Europe
Information on snow cover and snow properties is an important factor for hydrology and runoff modeling. Frequent updates of snow cover information can help to improve water balance and discharge calculations. Within the frame of Polar View, snow products from multisensoral satellite data are operationally provided to control and update water balance models for large parts of Southern Germany. T...
متن کاملAssimilation of MODIS Snow Cover Area Data in a Distributed Hydrological Model Using the Particle Filter
Snow is an important component of the water cycle, and its estimation in hydrological models is of great significance concerning the simulation and forecasting of flood events due to snow-melt. The assimilation of Snow Cover Area (SCA) in physical distributed hydrological models is a possible source of improvement of snowmelt-related floods. In this study, the assimilation in the LISFLOOD model...
