Spatial variability in snow precipitation and accumulation in COSMO–WRF simulations and radar estimations over complex terrain
<p>Snow distribution in complex alpine terrain and its evolution in the future climate is important in a variety of applications including hydropower, avalanche forecasting and freshwater resources. However, it is still challenging to quantitatively forecast precipitation, especially over...
