Molotch , Noah 1 1 Geography and INSTAAR, CU-Â鶹ӰԺ New remote sensing and in situ measurement capabilities afford improved understanding of distributed ecohydrological processes in mountainous regions. In this regard, distributed ecohydrologic instrument clusters allow us to observe micro-scale variability in snow-vegetation interactions. Clusters deployed in the Central and Southern...

McIntyre , Heather M 1 ; Barry , Roger G 2 1 CU-Â鶹ӰԺ 2 CU-Â鶹ӰԺ Snow covered area (SCA) represents the largest single component of the cryosphere that fluctuates seasonally. For the mountain west, the distribution and storage of snow is largely within the alpine and subalpine environments known to...
