Snow science and its shifting patterns across hemispheres
Snow is a complex substance with variable states and effects on land and air. Satellite data since 1972 show little global change in winter extent but earlier spring melt, linked to temperatures, while snow depth remains harder to gauge. Researchers warn snow influence on climate and energy, and study Southern Hemisphere patterns for broader insight.
