...An alternative approach is a Lagrangian grid scheme: a deforming layer structure that retains much of the same snow material throughout the season (e.g. Jordan, 1991; Brun et al., 1992; Lehning et al., 2002)....

...Snowpack evolution models offer a way to estimate temporal changes in snow microstructural parameters and stratigraphy (e.g. Lehning et al., 2002; Brun et al., 1992)....

...However, microwave algorithms such as those developed by Chang et al. (1987) and Kelly (2009) can result in large errors because of the high sensitivity of applied forward models to parameterization of the snow microstructure (Davenport et al., 2012)....

...In particular, the assumption of a fixed snow scatterer radius in the Chang et al. (1987) algorithm does not reflect the naturally changing snowpack structure....

...Wiesmann et al. (2000) also reported a relationship for Crocus simulations, as did Brucker et al. (2011)....

...Wiesmann et al. (2000) found a snow-typedependent scale factor of 0.3–0.4 between MEMLS correlation length and Crocus grain diameter, whereas the range in Brucker et al. (2011) was 0.4–0.25 for snow density between 100 and 400 kgm−3....

...At this stage it is not possible to make comparisons of this work with those studies because the Crocus evolution model has not been included in this study due to the difficulty of ap- plying these models to the Eulerian frame snowpack model scheme used here....

...Other microstructure parameterisations are available, namely the Crocus (Vionnet et al., 2012) and SNOWPACK (Lehning et al., 2002) microstructure evolution functions....

...Therefore the Crocus and SNOWPACK functions have not been included in this study....
