Track 2-07: Climate Change Impacts on Grassland Production, Composition, Distribution and Adaptation
Description
Snow cover, as an important part of land cover, is one of the most active natural elements on the earth surface. This program used the MODIS/Terra-Aqua daily snow products (MOD10A1 and MYD10A1) and AMSR-E/Aqua daily snow water equivalent product (AE_DySno) from 2003 to 2010 of Tibetan Plateau (TP), together with systematic study on MODIS daily snow cover product composite and a merging of multi-sensor and snow line approaches (Liang et al. 2008) to put forward a new snow cover mapping algorithm. Daily cloud-free snow cover images were calculated based on the new algorithm and the response of climate change on snow cover dynamics was analysed.
