“…In an effort to better understand the meteorological conditions that affect snowmelt, energy budgets of snowpacks have been studied for nearly 80 yr. Many studies use slow-response meteorological instruments with empirical bulk aerodynamic formulas to estimate the turbulent energy fluxes (e.g., Niederdorfer 1933;Sverdrup 1936;Takahashi et al 1956;Schlatter 1972;Male and Granger 1981;Marks and Dozier 1992;Marsh and Pomeroy 1996;Cline 1997;Hood et al 1999;Hawkins and Walton 2007), whereas more recent studies use fast-response instrumentation with the eddy covariance technique to calculate turbulent energy exchange (Hicks and Martin 1972;McKay and Thurtell 1978;Yen 1995;Mahrt and Vickers 2005;Hayashi et al 2005;Molotch et al 2007;Marks et al 2008;Reba et al 2009;Mott et al 2011). Marks et al (2008) showed that, for a snowpack under a pine canopy, the mean differences calculated over several weeks between the eddy covariance and bulkmethod fluxes were within 1-4 W m 22 (with better agreement during the day than at night); hourly differences, however, were significantly larger than the longterm mean difference.…”
