This research project has two primary scientific goals which include:
1) Relating ground truthed snowpack data to passive microwave data obtained from satellites through the winter months. This will assist in formulating a empirical relationship between the two datasets which is necessary to improve satellite monitoring of snow water equivalent.
2) Determining the relative importance of snowmel...

Summary:
Regional estimates of snow water equivalent (SWE) are useful for climate studies, calculating how much water is stored in the snowpack, and weather forecasting. These data are available from manual surface measurements, but there not very many measureme...

200220012000 Summary:
The objectives of the research are to examine how changes in active layer depth influence groundwater and surface water chemistry in two subbasins of the Daring Lake basin in the headwaters of the Coppermine River Basin. In addition, a snow survey of th...
