Term: | Snow depth |
Definition: | In the firn area, the vertical distance between the glacier surface and the summer surface; outside the firn area, the vertical distance between the glacier surface and the ice surface (which may be superimposed ice or glacier ice) at the time of observation. |

Snow depth is the depth of accumulated snow on the ground, measured at several points that appear representative of the immediate area and then averaged. CanadaNCA
The combined total depth of both the old and new snow on the ground. NOAAHydrology The combined total depth of both old and new snow on the ground.
