Figure 1. Linear trends in April 1 snow water equivalent (SWE) relative to the starting value for the linear fit (i.e., the 1950 value of the best-fit line), (a) at 824 snow course locations in the western U.S. and Canada for the period 1950-1997, with negative trends shown by red circles and positive by blue circles. Lines on the maps divide the West into four regions for analysis shown in subsequent figures. Mo te e t al., 2005, Bulle tin o f the Ame ric an Me te o ro lo g ic al So c ie ty.
