2023 AGU Session Announcement
Snow plays a critical role in Earth's water and energy cycles, contributing to freshwater resources while helping to cool the planet. The goal of the NASA SnowEx campaign is to determine an optimal approach for monitoring snow from space. Campaign data and other integrated open science tools and models developed by the community will be showcased to investigate sensor capabilities and limitations across a variety of spatial and temporal scales.
For this session, we invite submissions leveraging field campaign data from any snow climate that is being used to identify pathways to accuarate spaceborne snow measurements. Submit Abstract >>

Code of Conduct
SnowEx leadership and the THP Office are committed to providing safe, welcoming, and productive environments in the field and the lab, and at meetings and conferences, and have adopted the Geophysical Union Scientific Code of Conduct). The AGU Code of Conduct "rejects discrimination and harassment by any means, based on factors such as ethnic or national origin, race, religion, citizenship, language, political or other opinion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, age, or economic class."
In addition, we created this Code of Conduct specific to SnowEx because field work is distinct from office work. Safe and productive field work is our aim, and this aim necessitates a team that considers and respects its members. This document describes the needs and values that we hope will make this effort safe and productive for all teammates.
