Current Research:
Examining snow depth, extent, and melt in the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range utilizing the Advanced Canopy-Atmosphere-Soil algorithm (ACASA) a multi-layer soil-vegetation-atmosphere model with a fourth order turbulent closure transport scheme.
Estimates of snow depth, extent, and melt in the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range are critical to estimating the amount of water that will be available for crops during the growing season within California’s Central Valley.
