Spring snowmelt occurs for a short duration on an annual time scale, but their timings considerably affect the carbon and hydrological cycle in high-latitude ecosystems. Here, we developed a simple snowmelt model, treating the ecosystem surface as a bulk-surface layer. Energy fluxes across this bulk surface and the snow-soil boundary determine snow temperature and the energy utilized for snowmelt.
