The use of upper air data in the estimation of snow melt.

A snow melt model is postulated to utilize rawinsonde observations of temperature, dewpoint, and wind speed as input variables. The model is developed around the snow surface energy balance, with the energy budget components structured to accommodate the upper air data. Some physical characteristics...
