Snowpack-based drought classification

Local Knowledge Graph (9 entities)

Knowledge graph centered on Snowpack-based drought classification with 9 nodes and 21 connections. Top connected: elevational gradients, species diversity, Belt transect method, climate change impacts, Mantel test.

Description

Classification of drought years based on winter snowpack totals measured from November to April, with low snow years indicating subsequent summer drought conditions. Uses established relationship between snowmelt timing and summer water availability.

Typical Equipment

• snow measurement instruments

Output Measurements

• drought classification
• snow totals
