Detection and Attribution of Observed Changes in Northern Hemisphere Spring Snow Cover
- Examines climate model simulations of Northern Hemisphere spring snow cover extent and compares these with observed trends
- Finds that, with natural forcings alone, the models are unable to reproduce observed trends
- Finds that with the combination of natural and anthropogenic forcings, the models simulate the observed downward trend, although the magnitude is underestimated
