Overview

This dataset provides surface spectral reflectance imagery which demonstrates snow albedo and snow optical properties during the NASA SnowEx 2023 field campaign that took place in Alaska between 7 April 2023 and 5 May 2023. Imagery was collected across several snow-covered boreal forest environments on April 20th, 2023, near Fairbanks, Alaska, including Farmers Loop Creamers Field (FLCF), and Caribou Poker Creek Research Watershed (CPCRW).
