Description
Summary:The snow cover is computed for the region covering the lower slope of Aucella, towards the South and Young Sound. The region corresponds to the area named 10 in the map in: GeoBasis_Zack_Snow_properties_Aucella_S_low_Snow_cover.pdf. Snow cover is computed from orthorectified digital photos taken from the slope of Zackenberg, ca. 480 meters above sea level. The cameras used to capture the digital photos were: 1998 - 2005-06-30: Kodak DC50, 2005-06-30 - 2008-05-03: Kodak CX 6200 RDC 365, 2008-05-03 - now: HP Photosmart E427. The images are captured every day at 13:20, which is solar noon in the Zackenberg valley. Snow cover data from 2003-2005 is missing. Snow properties:Snow properties GeoBasis Zackenberg:The GeoBasis monitoring programme focuses on selected abiotic characteristics in order to describe the state of Greenlandic terrestrial environments and their potential feedback effects in a changing climate. Monitored plot data is up-scaled to a landscape level and is used to improve ecosystem models to be ...
