This project aims to transform the iSnobal physically based snow energy and mass balance model into a community maintained open science research model. It is in the early stages with the aim to bring together operational and scientific end-users to improve, share advances, best practices, and use-cases of the model.
This work is the continuation of the initial model development by the USDA Agricultural Research Service Northwest Watershed Research Center which we gratefully acknowledge.
