Short summary
Snow is vital for society and the climate, yet estimates of snowpack remain uncertain due to observational and modeling limitations. Data assimilation (DA) helps by integrating observations with models. Here, we integrate snow depth retrievals into a physically-based snow model across the European Alps. This work offers advancements for snow data assimilation, such as incorporating a dynamic observational uncertainty, which is essential for forecasting and water resource management.
