Snowmelt evolution mapping using an energy balance approach over an Alpine terrain / Catherine Mittaz, Markus Imhof, Martin Hoelzle, Wilfried Haeberli.
Title: | Snowmelt evolution mapping using an energy balance approach over an Alpine terrain / Catherine Mittaz, Markus Imhof, Martin Hoelzle, Wilfried Haeberli. |
Author(s): | Mittaz, Catherine. Imhof, Markus. Hoelzle, Martin. Haeberli, Wilfried. |
Date: | 2002. |
In: | Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research. (2002.), Vol. 34(3) (2002) |
Abstract: | Develops digital elevation model (DEM) for modelling snowmelt on daily basis, particularly snow redistribution over alpine terrain. Applied to area in Bernese Oberland, 1996-97, and compared with snowmelt evolution map derived from aerial photographs taken in 1997 melt season, model showed good agreement, with spatial coincidence equal to or better than 78%. Model is suited for sensitivity studies and so can be used for improving snowmelt runoff models, flood forecasting, water resource assessment and modelling permafrost distribution. |
