Validation of the SNTHERM Model Applied for Snow Depth, Grain Size, and Brightness Temperature Simulation at Meteorological Stations in China

Abstract: Validation of the snow process model is an important preliminary work for the snow parameter estimation. The snow grain growth is a continuous and accumulative process, which cannot be evaluated without comparing with the observations in snow season scale. In order to understand the snow properties in the Asian Water Tower region (including Xinjiang province and the Tibetan Plateau) and enhance the use of modeling tools, an extended snow experiment at the foot of the Altay Mountain was designed to validate and… Show more

“…Each sample is a layered snow profile over bare soil that contains the thickness, temperature, density, and SNTHERM-simulated grain size of each snow layer, and the temperature, water content, and unfrozen soil water content averaged over 0-5 cm of soil. The SNTHERM simulated snow depth, layered geometric grain size (D max ), snow density and snow temperature were validated using in situ snowpit measurements in [32]. In Figures 2-4, we further present a comparison of vertical profiles on three different days.…”

“…In this section, two datasets composed of multiple-layer snow profile samples are introduced as follows. [32] used the hourly meteorological forcing data observed at the station (including near-surface air temperature, air pressure, precipitation, wind speed, relative humidity, and solar radiation) to drive SNTHERM and obtained simulated snow profiles at the 1 hour step as shown in Figure 1. This dataset was used as the samples inputted into MEMLS to study the bulk T B calculation method.…”
