Composite patterns of monthly averaged (1978 -2002) satellite passive microwave derived snow water equivalent (SWE) data produced using the Meteorological Service of Canada land cover sensitive algorithm suite contain an interannually consistent and well-defined zone of high SWE retrievals (> 100 mm

## Abstract Spaceβborne passive microwave snow water equivalent (SWE) retrieval algorithms are attractive for continuous SWE monitoring over large mountainous areas. The performance of three SWE retrieval algorithms, which were considered relevant for operational purposes, was examined for each mon
The monitoring of snow water equivalent (SWE) and snow depth (SD) in boreal forests is investigated by applying space-borne microwave radiometer data and synoptic snow depth observations. A novel assimilation technique based on (forward) modelling of observed brightness temperatures as a function of
