Nimbus 3 and 4 Observations of Snow Cover and Other Hydrological Features in the Western Himalayas

Photographs from the Nimbus 3 and 4 image dissector camera systems and high resolution infrared radiometers illustrate and demonstrate their applicability in observing snow cover and other hydrological features. This collection of imagery shows the relative merits of daily observations of these features in the visible, near infrared, and far infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum with sensors having nominal spatial resolutions between 4 and 8 kilometers. Particular emphasis has been placed on observing features associated with the Indus River because of the economic and social importance of this in the lives of millions of people. The overall results clearly indicate that it is feasible to monitor quantitatively the extent of the snow cover over the Indus River watershed during a given year and from one year to another using meteorological satellite imagery.
