Predicting snow course snow water equivalent / John F. Zuzel.
Title: | Predicting snow course snow water equivalent / John F. Zuzel. |
Author(s): | Zuzel, John F. |
Date: | 1988. |
In: | Western Snow Conference. Proceedings. (1988.), Vol. 56th Annual Meeting (1988) |
Abstract: | Presents method of calculating probabilities of additional snow water equivalent (SWE) from intermonthly autocorrelation structure of SWE at snow-course site. Probabilities can be used to modify streamflow forecasts or to indicate degree of risk associated with particular management decision. SWE was used as surrogate for streamflow since it reflects variability of atmospheric inputs to snowmelt-runoff system. Furthermore, variability of streamflow forecasts over forecast period is not necessarily result of input variability. |
Notes: | Western Snow Conference. Proceedings. Vol. 56th Annual Meeting :155-157 (1988). |
Keywords: | 556 -- Hydrology. 551.579.2 -- Water supply from snow. 551.509.3 -- Weather forecasting, bases and methods. E3 -- Glaciology: instruments and methods. |
