Short Summary

This paper proposes an AI-based framework for real-time snow-cover analysis over the Western Himalayas using scatterometer datasets to improve monitoring of water resources and mitigate natural disaster risks in the context of climate change.

Objective

• To develop and implement an AI-based framework for real-time snow-cover analysis in the Western Himalayas using scatterometer data to enhance monitoring of water supplies, weather patterns, and natural disaster risks.

Study Configuration

• Spatial Scale: Western Himalayas (regional scale).
• Temporal Scale: Real-time, seasonal, and long-term monitoring to assess climate change impacts.

Methodology and Data

• Models used: AI-Based framework (specific algorithms not detailed in the provided text).
• Data sources: Scatterometer dataset, satellite photography, optical remote sensing, microwave remote sensing.

Main Results

• The provided text is an introductory chapter and does not present specific results. It outlines the problem and the proposed methodology.

Contributions

• Proposes an AI-based framework for real-time snow-cover analysis, specifically leveraging scatterometer datasets for the Western Himalayas.
• Addresses the challenge of monitoring inaccessible regions in the Western Himalayas for water security, agriculture, and biodiversity.
