Variations of climate, surface energy budget and minimum snow/ice extent over Canadian Arctic landmass for 2000-2016
Abstract
Abstract
Snow and ice over land are important hydrological resources and sensitive indicators of climate change. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) dataset at 250-m spatial resolution generated at the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing (CCRS) is used to derive the annual minimum snow and ice (MSI) extent over the Canadian Arctic landmass over a 17-yr time span (2000–16). The smallest MSI extent (1.53 × 105 …
