Development of methods for mapping global snow cover using moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer data

TL;DR: The SNOMAP algorithm as discussed by the authors was developed to map global snow cover using Earth Observing System (EOS) Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data beginning at launch in 1998.

Red and Near-Infrared Spectral Reflectance of Snow

TL;DR: The spectral reflectance of snow in the range of 0.60 to 2.50 microns wavelengths was studied in a cold laboratory using natural snow and simulated preparations of snow as discussed by the authors.

Sequoia 2000 large capacity object servers to support global change research

TL;DR: This project complements both NASA's EOS project and UCAR's UCAR’s Climate Systems Modeling Program in addressing the gigantic data requirements of Earth System Science research before the turn of the century and is named Sequoia 2000, after the giant trees of the Sierra Nevada.

Numerically stable algorithm for discrete-ordinate-method radiative transfer in multiple scattering and emitting layered media.

TL;DR: An advanced, thoroughly documented, and quite general purpose discrete ordinate algorithm for time-independent transfer calculations in vertically inhomogeneous, nonisothermal, plane-parallel media for Atmospheric applications ranging from the UV to the radar region of the electromagnetic spectrum is summarized.

Optical Properties of Snow

TL;DR: In this paper, the dependence of snow albedo on wavelength, zenith angle, grain size, impurity content, and cloud cover can be interpreted in terms of single scattering and multiple scattering radiative transfer theory.

Two-Stream Approximations to Radiative Transfer in Planetary Atmospheres: A Unified Description of Existing Methods and a New Improvement

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stream approximation to radiative transfer theory for particulate media is shown to be represented by identical forms of coupled differential equations if the intensity is replaced by integrals of the intensity over hemispheres.

Red and Near-Infrared Spectral Reflectance of Snow

TL;DR: The spectral reflectance of snow in the range of 0.60 to 2.50 microns wavelengths was studied in a cold laboratory using natural snow and simulated preparations of snow as discussed by the authors.
