Inferring snowpack ripening and melt-out from distributed measurements of near-surface ground temperatures
Seasonal snow cover and its melt regime are heterogeneous both in time and space. Describing and modelling this variability is important because it affects diverse phenomena such as runoff, ground temperatures or slope movements. This study presents the derivation of melting characteristics based on...
