We designed a novel method to retrieve snowlines from the MODIS surface reflectance products. Our results provide unique insight into the glacier snowline dynamics.
PFAS in cloud water and snow in alpine regions of Austria
In this study anlaysis of PFAS in cloud water and in snow samples from background regions and are related to available results from literature.
Assessment of Temperature Lapse Rate and Its Integration with Hydrological Modeling using AWS and MODIS data over the Uttarakhand Region
This study examines runoff variations in Uttarakhand’s Alaknanda and Mandakini Basins using MODIS-LST and SPHY models, showing climate-driven shifts in rainfall, snowmelt, glacier melt, and base flow.
Diurnal energy cycles and net water vapor fluxes in mountain watersheds
This work uses observations in an alpine catchment of snow cover, valley winds, and cloud cover to look feedbacks between alpine catchment hydrology and atmospheric processes.
Preparing for NASA SBG: fusing multi- and hyperspectral airborne and satellite data to create daily, high resolution snow albedo products
Our project combines multi- and hyperspectral reflectance data, spectral mixture analysis, and random forest machine learning algorithms to create better snow albedo measurements.
Assessment of glacial retreat and its influence on water availability in the Quillcay River Hydrographic Unit under CMIP6 climate scenarios (Period 2000-2050)
The research analyses the retreat of glaciers in the Quillcay River hydrographic unit (2000-2050) using satellite images and glaciological models under CMIP6 scenarios.
