Sub-kilometer Precipitation Datasets for Snowpack and Glacier Modeling in Alpine Terrain

Sub-kilometer Precipitation Datasets for Snowpack and Glacier Modeling in Alpine Terrain

Capturing the spatial and temporal variability of precipitation at fine scale is necessary for high-resolution modeling of snowpack and glacier mass balance in alpine terrain. In this study, we assess the impact of three sub-kilometer precipitation datasets on distributed simulations of snowpack and...
