Seasonal Climate Forecast Skill Assessment for the Management of Water Resources in a Run of River Hydropower System in the Poqueira River (Southern Spain)
(MDPI, 2020)
Run of river (RoR) hydropower systems, despite being one of the most cost-effective and environmentally benign energy technologies, have the disadvantage that production is not constant because it is subject to a high ...
Extreme values of snow-related variables in Mediterranean regions: trends and long-term forecasting in Sierra Nevada (Spain)
(International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015)
Mountain areas in Mediterranean regions constitute key monitoring points for climate variability and
its impacts, but long time datasets are not always available due to the difficult access to high areas, relevant ...
Terrestrial photography as an alternative to satellite images to study snow cover evolution at hillslope scale
(SPIE, 2012)
In Mediterranean regions, where the water shortage is a serious and recurrent problem, it is essential to know the behaviour and evolution of the snow. Satellite remote sensing is widely used to find out the evolution of ...
Estimating snow albedo patterns in a Mediterranean site from Landsat TM and ETM+ images
(SPIE, 2013)
The albedo of snow affects the shortwave radiative flux at the land-atmosphere interface, so that it therefore plays an important role in the snow mass and energy balance. In semiarid areas, their particular climate ...
Study of snow dynamics at subgrid scale in semiarid environments combining terrestrial photography and data assimilation techniques
(American Meteorology Society, 2015)
Snow cover simulation is a complex task in mountain regions because of its highly irregular distribution. GIS-based calculations of snowmelt–accumulation models must deal with nonnegligible scale effects below cell size, ...
Subgrid parameterization of snow distribution at a Mediterranean site using terrestrial photography
(EGU, 2017)
Subgrid variability introduces non-negligible scale
effects on the grid-based representation of snow. This heterogeneity
is even more evident in semiarid regions, where the
high variability of the climate produces various ...
Analysis of snow spatial and temporary variability through the study of terrestrial photography in the Trevelez river valley
(SPIE, 2014)
The spatiotemporal evolution of the snow cover may help to obtain conclusions on the variability of the atmospheric agents in high mountain areas. That evolution is difficult to analyze due to the heterogeneity of the snow ...
Combining remote sensing and terrestrial photography in a snowmelt modeling framework to retrieve snow evolution in a semiarid region
(IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018)
This work shows the strength of combining different data sources and modelling to generate long time map series of snow variables in Sierra Nevada (Spain), an alpine environment within a semiarid region in which the snowpack ...
Snow evolution in a semi-arid mountainous area combining snow modelling and Landsat spectral mixture analysis
(Copernicus, 2015)
This study proposes the use of both physically-distributed hydrological modelling in combination with satellite remote sensing images, to study the evolution of the snowpack in the Sierra Nevada mountains, in southern ...
