MARC recordDigital investigation of Great Lakes regional snowfall, 1951-1980 / D.C. Norton.
| Title: | Digital investigation of Great Lakes regional snowfall, 1951-1980 / D.C. Norton. |
| Author(s): | Norton, D. C. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Eastern Snow Conference. Proceedings. (1991.), Vol. 48th Annual Meeting (1991) |
| Abstract: | Snowfall database for this region was created previously, and data were translated to 240 high-resolution monthly grids and 30 snow-season grids of 198,000 cells. Using these grids, multiple seasonal snowfalls are presented, compared digitally, and computer-contoured. Paper introduces concept of geographically defined normals and new windowing techniques. Discusses potential for incorporation of digital snowfall data into geographical information system for climate studies, forecasting, and management. |
