I am trying to study the sensitivity of river discharge to Snow Cover Area (SCA) derived from MODIS for Himalayan catchment. I found some paper using elasticity approach eg., Kour et al., 2016. Do you have some more papers/ideas?
Hi, you should also consider the impact too of ice on sensitivity of river discharge.
In Mongolia, the contribution of snow melt to river discharge is early and sudden, too early to be of much value for spring pastures, whereas the contribution of seasonal ice is later and sustained, and vital for spring pastures. Here is a link to my paper that deals with this topic. Best regards, Robin
