Snow

For more information see the project: SnowC2.

Two studies carried out during my PhD and my current 2-year postdoc project will be presented. The first study investigates climate change in High Mountain Asia (HMA) from 1979 to 2014 and future projections using CMIP6 global climate models (GCMs). …

Snow cover heterogeneity and its impact on the Climate and Carbon cycle of Arctic regions

The High Mountain Asia (HMA) is hosting the largest ice stock after the polar regions. This resource provides a freshwater supply to nearly 1.4 billion people, making it a particularly vulnerable region to climate change. HMA includes the highest …

Mickaël Lalande est doctorant en géosciences à l'Université Grenoble Alpes. Il travaille sur la modélisation climatique. Cela ne vous dit rien ? Il s'agit de diviser la planète en cubes et de calculer les variables climatiques pour faire des projections, facile !

Snow cover strongly modulates the energy fluxes between the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface. Indeed, snow has generally a much higher albedo compared to other surfaces and therefore reduces the amount of solar radiation absorbed by the surface. …

With an average elevation of 4000 m, High Mountain Asia (HMA) and the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are hosting the third largest reservoir of glaciers and snow after the two polar ice caps, and trigger strong rates of orographic precipitation. Climate …
