Introduction
- Need for timely and accurate snow cover mapping:
- May cover up to 40% of the Earth's surface,
- Energy and water cycle of Earth,
- High reflectance and low thermal conductivity,
- A significant determinant of the Earth's radiation budget,
- A vital source of irrigation and drinking water supply,
- A major input component of General Circulation Models.
