nixmass

R-package with functions for Snow Water Equivalent Modeling with the $\Delta\text{SNOW}$ Model and Empirical Regression Models.

Snow water equivalent is modeled with the process based $\Delta\text{SNOW}$ model and empirical regression models using relationships between density and diverse at-site parameters. The methods are described in Winkler et al. (2021), Guyennon et al. (2019), Pistocchi (2016), Jonas et al. (2009) and Sturm et al. (2010).

Note that there exists a very similar model which has many ideas in common with the $\Delta\text{SNOW}$ model.
