New preprint in TC on our work developing high-resolution maps of grain size and ice layer stratigraphy in firn cores! Check it out to see more about the method, dataset, and an application of these maps to document firn structure changes after extreme melt. Feedback is welcome!

Congratulations to PhD student Eric Gagliano on his recently published paper in GRL presenting scalable tools to estimate snowmelt timing using Sentinel-1 SAR imagery! Check out the paper here: doi.org/10.1029/2023GL… and tools here: github.com/egagli/sar_sno…

NASA Goddard ICIMOD SERVIR Global Dr. Eric J Fielding, PhD 🇧🇿 Belize GEO 🛰️ AKSatelliteFacility Forrest Williams @R_J_Michaelides NASA Marshall ESA Earth Observation DLR - English Last but not least Ross Palomaki is talking about mapping snow ❄️ from #SAR and #InSAR. Shoutout to the fantastic #SnowEx community that has done a ton over the last few years to advance the application of SAR in the field! Jack Tarricone Hans-Peter Marshall UAVSAR

Thanks to Kate Hale for leading a fantastic CUAHSI SINTER Snow School! Has been a fun week seeing students learn about and measure the NH snowpack.

Great work from Justin Pflug !

New preprint led by Randall Bonnell investigating the accuracy of L-band InSAR returns using GPR and TLS – very promising results! Hans-Peter Marshall

Excited to share our work on InSAR phase-based tropospheric correction using texture info. We found texture is relatively insensitive to topo-correlated deformation, thus, providing superior performance w/o compromising defo signals! Qingyue Yang ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10411…

What is the effect of climate warming in a snow-dominated catchment?

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to tag along with the #UNR Mountain Geography course on their field trip to UC Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Lab ! It was a beautiful day to talk #snowscience & learn more about the amazing work Andrew Schwartz + team are doing! #snowhydrology #UAS

We’re happy to announce a re-launch of the Snow Today project’s Snow Viewer for current conditions in the Western US! Data includes snow cover & snow duration: nsidc.org/snow-today/sno…. Stay tuned for an analysis of the snow season next week! INSTAAR 🏳️‍🌈 CIRES

spring is for snow pits! a week on the Grand Mesa of Colorado for the SNOw Water equivalent Wideswath Interferometer (SNOWWI) field campaign — new snow, lots of melt-freeze crusts, and a few dust layers — and some beach days at the top of Vermont — isothermal ❄️

(1/3) New paper out! We look into the opposite of snow drought - what we're calling snow deluge. We found that California's 2023 snow deluge was a roughly ~1 in 54 year event, and broke records at 42% of monitoring sites. AP summary: apnews.com/article/snow-d…

Was 2024 a good or bad snow year? Thread!

What’s Next for Snow? Join us at the 2025 NASA Community Snow Meeting this August 14-15 in Boulder, Colorado, USA — at CU Boulder 🦬 — to partake in the discussion. More info, including the meeting schedule and a registration link, is available here: nasa-csm.github.io/website/

Link to published paper: tc.copernicus.org/articles/17/19… Thanks for the post @KinarNicholas

Using NASA data to conduct snow research? Consider submitting to our 4th annual NASA SnowEx session! Abstracts due July 31.

🚨Day 4 of EarthScope Consortium InSAR Course🚨 Lots of topics today: Jack Tarricone kicked us off with a summary of SAR missions. Currently we discuss atmospheric & ionospheric delay (& how to correct them). Offset tracking & multi-geometry InSAR (Dr Gareth Funning) come next 🥳. #GoldenAgeOfSAR

New work led by Randall Bonnell showing good UAVSAR InSAR SWE retrieval performance when compared to GPR and TLS measurements!

New work led by Zach Hoppinen where we evaluated an open-source Sentinel-1 snow depth retrieval against SnowEx lidar data

New paper alert!
