What is Snow Cover Change on Tibetan Plateau about?

The document summarizes a study that analyzed changing snow cover area over the Tibetan Plateau using MODIS and ASTER satellite data. A linear spectral unmixing method was applied to MODIS data to estimate fractional snow cover at sub-pixel scales and validated with high resolution ASTER data. Snow cover area was found to increase from October to February and then decline until September. Topography also influenced snow distribution, with more snow at higher altitudes.
