Wind-Driven Snow Redistribution on Arctic Sea Ice
David Clemens-Sewall + Chris Polashenski + Donald K Perovich ...
One of the largest uncertainties in models of Arctic sea ice is the heat flux through the snow in winter. Wind-driven snow redistribution creates snow spatial variability...

Constructing an Observationally-Calibrated Blended Snow-On-Sea-Ice Product
Alex Cabaj + Alek Petty + Paul J Kushner
Snow on Arctic sea ice plays a key role in Arctic climate feedbacks, in particular, through its impact on sea ice. Snow has many seasonally-varying and sometimes contrasting...

Snow Grain Size Retrieval Algorithm Effectiveness using UAV-borne High-Resolution Hyperspectral Observations
Adam Hunsaker + Jennifer M Jacobs + Jeremy M Johnston ...
Snow grain size significantly influences the amount of solar energy reflected by a snowpack. Grain size can vary considerably in space and its metamorphism can occur in response...

An Examination of Water-Related Melt Processes in Arctic Tundra and Sea-Ice Snow
Anika Pinzner + Andrew R Mahoney + Jennifer S Delamere ...
From April through June 2019 and 2022, we monitored snow melt at three sites near Utqiaġvik, Alaska. Along 200-m swaths we measured depth, density, grain size, stratigraphy,...
