摘要
引入变动积雪覆盖高程(FSCE)描述积雪/裸地下垫面分界线在多年平均意义下的年内变化特征,通过参数无雪期中期Tm和无雪期持续时间ΔT对其进行量化,建立了藏东拉萨河流域、尼洋河流域和昌都地区的FSCE回归模型.统计分析表明,在25km×25km雪产品栅格分辨率下,研究区域内近80%的面积上,积雪的时空分布可以通过FSCE刻画:1)无雪期中期Tm的多年平均值为一年的7月31日,与地理地形因素相关性较弱;2)无雪期持续时间ΔT的多年平均值约为5个月(151d),与栅格平均高程显著负相关;3)一年的4月下旬积雪开始消融、6月下旬至9月中旬为无雪期,11月中旬至次年3月为积雪覆盖期.将来更高空间分辨率的雪产品数据,将有助于揭示小尺度上的FSCE精细特征.
Fluctuating snow-covered elevation(FSCE) was conceptualized and proposed to characterize within-year variation of the border between snow-covered area and snow-free area in mountainous regions.Two parameters,namely median of the snow-free period(Tm) and duration of snow-free period(DT),were defined to quantify FSCE.A regression model of FSCE was developed for the Lhasa River basin,Niyang River basin and Changdu Prefecture in Eastern Tibet.Statistical analyses of the snow-products data with a spatial resolution of 25 km×25 km show that: 1) Tm correlates insignificantly with geographical and topographic factors,having the yearly mean value of July 31;2) DT correlates significantly with the average elevation of the snow-products cell,having the yearly mean value of nearly five months(i.e.,151 days);3) in the region snow melting begins in last April and snow cover begins in mid November;from last June to mid September there is a snow-free period and from December to March in the next year there is a snow-cover period.In addition,snow-products with higher spatial resolution will be helpful to characterize FSCE in smaller spatial scales.
