Snowmelt refers to the process of snow and ice melting due to rising temperatures. This natural phenomenon typically occurs in the spring, when warmer weather causes the snow and ice accumulated during the winter months to melt and flow as runoff into rivers, lakes, and streams. Snowmelt is a critical component of the water cycle and plays a vital role in maintaining water resources, ecosystems, and agriculture. Researchers study snowmelt processes to better understand its impacts on water availability, flood risks, and climate change. They use various methods such as remote sensing, modeling, and field observations to monitor and predict snowmelt patterns and trends. Understanding snowmelt is essential for managing water resources effectively and adapting to changing climate conditions.
