Table 4: Significant correlations (p < 0.05) between spring (March-April-May, MAM) temperature anomalies from weather stations, Day of year (DOY) for peak snow cover depletion (DPSCD) and DOY for snow cover disappearance (DSCD). DPSCD and DSCD are average values in the same elevation band as weather stations, i.e. 500-1000 m a.s.l. for Altay and Fuyun and 1000-1500 m a.s.l. for Baitag. * marks non-significant correlations.
