The Campaign
SnowEx is a multi-year, NASA-led campaign which aims to enhance remote sensing capabilities of snow in forested regions. SnowEx has completed three deployment during the boreal winter from 2016-2021 across Colorado. Four aircraft equipped with radars, radiometers and other remote sensing instruments, along with ground instruments were used to record changes in snow/ice accumulation, as well as meteorological observations such as snowfall rates. SnowEx plans to use similar instrumentation in regions beyond Colorado for future deployments, in order to make observations in a variety of snow climates. SnowEx is funded by NASA’s Terrestrial Hydrology Program.
