Harvard Forest Snow Pillow since 2009

Water storage in snowpack is a key factor in the hydrological cycle of central New England. The Harvard Forest Snow Pillow provides continuous long-term measurements of the water content of snowpack (snow water equivalent) during the winter months. The snow pillow is located in a mature mixed hardwood stand with scattered conifers about 50 m north of the Nelson Brook Big Weir.

积雪储水量是新英格兰中部水文循环的关键影响因素。哈佛森林雪枕（Snow Pillow）可在冬季对积雪含水量（雪水当量，Snow Water Equivalent）开展长期连续监测。该雪枕坐落于纳尔逊溪大堰以北约50米处的成熟阔叶混交林内，林内伴生零散针叶树。如需获取最新数据，请访问：https://harvardforest.fas.harvard.edu/met-hydro-stations。
