Our team of remote sensing scientists wants to find answers to the question how climate change is affecting polar and cold regions.

The global snow cover duration of season 2022/2023 (top) and difference to long-term mean (bottom): Clear deficits in Southeast Europe, Turkey, parts of Central Asia, but also huge excess in parts of the US; #snow #water #climate #GlobalSnowPack

#Snow Extent 2023 in #SierraNevada, #California, since DOY 90 compared to long-term mean and minimum/maximum since 2000. Derived from #MODIS and #DLR #GlobalSnowPack. Extent is even higher than in 2006.

Snow lines in the #Alps again way above long term mean. The #drought situation we see in the #Po valley and Lake #Garda could even get worse by Spring and early Summer. Analysis is based on #Landsat satellite data since 1985. @Reuters @DroughtCentral @WorldOfChecco

Landsat 9 captured a rare snowfall in China’s Taklimakan Desert on Jan 18. This image uses the SWIR, NIR, & red bands (B 6|5|4) to highlight the stark contrast between the desert sand & snow-covered dunes.

Difference between Early Season #snow cover duration 2022/2023 and long term mean based on the Global SnowPack product. Lots of dynamics this season already... #climate #GSP

[EO4Cryosphere @EO4Cryosphere]

@US_Stormwatch We see the same in our Global Snowpack product based on MODIS: Lots of snow in North America this season. https://t.co/HdDebq6iL1

Did you know that global #snowcover duration is decreasing by -0.44 days/year? See a full analysis of 23 years of #GlobalSnowPack data here: https://t.co/Au0qvsuTeS 4010001

In 2022, Northern Italy suffered from the most severe hydrological #drought in 70 years significantly affected by a lack of snow. Colleagues from @DLR_en and @EuracEO analyzed the crucial role of #snow for this drought with #EarthObservation data: https://t.co/iJaldJGKYS

We congratulate our team member @DirscherlMariel on the Bernd Rendel-Preis 2022 awarded by #DFG. Great achievement Mariel!

Herzlichen Glückwunsch @BourgonNicolas & @DirscherlMariel! Diese Woche hat die #DFG den beiden den Bernd Rendel-Preis 2022 feierlich überreicht @DGGV_de-Jahrestagung. Das Preisgeld in Höhe von jeweils 2000 Euro soll sie in ihrem wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten unterstützen.👏

Did you ever wonder how fast the #snowline elevation in your favorite skiing area is moving up? Our colleague Jonas Koehler calculated snow line elevation #trends for the #Alps since 1985 and forecasted future changes. Check out his new publication: https://t.co/KkvvFQSYXM

New article about delineation of debris cover on #glaciers using #DeepLearning has just been published at @RemoteSens_MDPI by our guest scientist @Saurabh29418116

Congratulations to our colleague @DirscherlMariel . She just published her paper on supraglacial lake evolution in The Cryosphere @EGU_TC.
Check out the new #EGUhighlights paper: https://t.co/HOkMubpRNL

Have a look at the recent DLRblog post where our colleague @Celia_Baumhoer tells about fieldwork on #Aletsch #Glacier https://t.co/lxlXxImNOz
@DLR_de

[EO4Cryosphere @EO4Cryosphere]

In the context of our #PolarMonitor project we create a digital elevation model and high-resolution Ture Orthophoto Mosaics of the Great #Aletsch #Glacier. Measuring the necessary control points at the #Jungfraujoch is quite challenging thanks to windy conditions.

Did you ever wonder how environmental drivers influence Antarctic calving front change?

Looking forward to @Celia_Baumhoer‘s talk on two decades of Antarctic coastal-change revealed
by satellite imagery and #deeplearning tomorrow, Friday, at 11:15 a.m. #vEGU21 #vEGU21_CR

Have you ever wondered how Antarctic supraglacial lakes form?
