About This Project
Seasonal snow cover plays an important role in the hydrology of northern Arctic tundra environments. With the release of the stored snow during the spring melt season we see a large hydrograph response. Unfortunately, these streams are often snow-choked resulting in multiple meltwater pond and snow dams within the channel resulting in upstream floods and catastrophic dam failures. This study uses UAV technology to effectively locate and map the size and location of these snow dam features.
