Frontiers Using Process Based Snow Modeling And Lidar To Predict The For example, broxton et al. (2015) found that coarsening the spatial resolution of a process based snow model from 1 to 100 m reduced peak snow water equivalent (swe) between 14 and 24% due to the simplification of radiation transfer processes. these types of studies demonstrate the importance of tree scale processes to make accurate snowpack predictions of heterogeneous forest change. We used the high resolution (1 m) energy and mass balance snow physics and lidar mapping (snowpalm) model to investigate the effect of two virtual forest thinning scenarios on the snowpack of two adjacent watersheds (54 km 2 total) in the lake tahoe basin, california, where forest thinning is being planned.

Frontiers Using Process Based Snow Modeling And Lidar To Predict The Reductions in snow accumulation and melt in headwater basins are increasing the water stress on forest ecosystems across the western us. forest thinning has the potential to reduce water stress by decreasing sublimation losses from canopy interception; however, it can also increase snowpack exposure to sun and wind. we used the high resolution (1 m) energy and mass balance snow physics and. To answer this question, a monte carlo lidar radiative transfer model is developed for simulating icesat 2 measurements of laser light propagation in snow. for normal incidence, the model results confirmed the theory predicting that 1) the average snow backscattering path length <l> = 4v s derived from the icesat 2 measurements equaled two. We use the high resolution (1m) process based snow physics and lidar mapping (snowpalm) model to predict the impact of two virtual thinning scenarios, where all the trees below 10 and 20m height. We used the high resolution (1 m) energy and mass balance snow physics and lidar mapping (snowpalm) model to investigate the effect of two virtual forest thinning scenarios on the snowpack of two adjacent watersheds (54 km 2 total) in the lake tahoe basin, california, where forest thinning is being planned. snowpalm realistically represents small scale snow forest interactions to simulate the.

Sebastian a. krogh, patrick d. broxton, patricia n. manley, adrian a. harpold, using process based snow modeling and lidar to predict the effects of forest thinning on the northern sierra nevada snowpack, frontiers in forests and global change, 10.3389 ffgc.2020.00021, 3, (2020). As the earth warms, the spatial and temporal response of seasonal snow remains uncertain. the global snow science community estimates snow cover and mass with information from land surface models, numerical weather prediction, satellite observations, surface measurements, and combinations thereof. accurate estimation of snow at the spatial and temporal scales over which snow varies has.
