Snow Accumulation in the Niaqunguk (Apex) River Watershed near Iqualuit, Nunavut, Canada
Spring snowmelt is the largest input to Arctic hydrological systems. The spring snow distribution is extremely spatially variable and difficult to quantify. This study used field measurements and models to characterize and quantify the spring snow distribution in the 52 km2 Niaqunguk River …

Improving Snow Deposition Magnitude and Heterogeneity Using Historic Snow Patterns in the California, USA, Sierra Nevada
Mountainous snow-covered landscapes in the Western United States behave like natural reservoirs, storing water during cold winter periods and sustaining snowmelt-driven streamflow vital for agriculture, municipalities, hydropower generation, and local ecosystems. In these regions, the timing and …

Spatial accumulation patterns of snow water equivalent in the southern Rocky Mountains
… be taken within a given watershed to estimate snow water equivalent (SWE) due to cost limitations, which necessitates basin-scale estimation of SWE. Modeling often assumes consistency in the spatial distribution of SWE, which may not be correct. Identifying patterns and variability in the …

The influence of snowcover distribution and variable melt regimes on the transport of nutrients from two high Arctic watersheds
… 2005, fieldwork was conducted during the spring snowmelt period at Cape Bounty, Melville Island, Nunavut to examine the relationships between snow accumulation, runoff, and nutrient fluxes in two High Arctic watersheds. The snowcover was quantified by means of eleven depth and three density …
