4 Combined SAR & OPT Snow Product Addressed Tasks: - SAR snow mapping in mountains and low lands - Combination of optical and SAR - Optical Snow Products: cloud coverage
5 Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-3 Sensor Overview S1 SAR IW Mode

11 Concept for SENTINEL-3 Snow Mapping using SLSTR (AATSR) and OLCI (MERIS) Sentinel-3: SLSTR (follow on of AATSR): , -3.7 µm + TIR 500 m / 1 km OLCI (follow on of MERIS): µm; 300 m Daily Global Coverage Fractional Snow Extent estimated using multi-spectral algorithm Synergistic SLSTR & OLCI TOA Product not available use only SLSTR TOA Product
12 Fractional Snow Cover Map 28 March 2017 Sentinel-3 SLSTR FSC Note: SLSTR Band co-location problems (1.6 µm band)
13 Assimilated Snow Cover Product Cloud-cleared Daily Cryoland Snow Extent product Observed by MODIS Assimilated Snow Extent Product FSC Generated by assimilation of observed FSC product and a snow pack model using ECMWF data as input
14 Combining fractional snow extent maps with melting snow area maps Advanced product providing Fractional Snow Extent and Snow Conditions (dry / wet) 14
15 Conclusions The Sentinel-1 satellite formation offers excellent capabilities for operational monitoring of snow melt area at high spatial resolution, but requires systematic acquisitions. An algorithm for retrieval of snowmelt area has been developed, applying the fusion of co- and cross-polarized channels to optimize the discrimination of snow vs. snow-free areas over a wide range of incidence angles, was successful applied in mountainous regions (Alps) and Iceland. Synergistic use of SAR and optical based snow maps provide information on the total snow extent (optical satellite) and on physical snow conditions (wet snow; SAR), and allows snow monitoring in lower elevated non-mountain regions. This advanced information is required by hydrological services, water management, meteorological services, geotechnical engineering, etc..

19 Multiannual trends of monthly average snow products
20 SnowPEx Major Results There is considerable inter-dataset spread in the NH snow cover extent and snow mass derived from available satellite and modelled products. Agreement between satellite SE products depends on environment and surface classes and varies during the season. Typical: RMSE is 15 %, Bias is +/- 8 %, higher differences (up to 50% RMSE). Agreement of SE products with Landsat snow reference data is typically between 10% and 25% RMSE. But the spread of different Landsat snow algorithms requires a more detailed analysis on their performance. Satellite SWE retrievals show an RMSE between 42 mm and 72 mm. Assimilation of in-situ snow measurements in the retrieval algorithm improves performance in comparison to satellite data only algorithms. Analysis of the trends of monthly average of SE from different products from 1999 onwards show a wide spreading of different products, which should be taken into account for climate application (e.g. model spread can be compared to observational spread). SnowPEx continuation in discussion.
21 snow_cci (expected to start in Q1/Q2 2018) Primary objectives : generate a long term consistent multisensor daily global snow extent products starting in 1981 using archived satellite data from AVHRR, ATSR-2 / AATSR, MODIS, Sentinel-3 SLSTR & OLCI, SAR Improved time series of snow water equivalent products from 1980 onwards, using SMMR and SSM/I address discrepancies of trends between snow products revealed by SnowPEx by adding an independent
