  abstract = {{W}e propose to fuse the high spatial content of two 250-m spectral bands of the {M}oderate {R}esolution {I}maging {S}pectroradiometer ({MODIS}) into its five 500-m bands using wavelet-based multiresolution analysis. {O}ur objective was to test the effectiveness of this technique to increase the accuracy of snow mapping in mountainous environments. {T}o assess the performance of this approach, we took advantage of the simultaneity between the {A}dvanced {S}paceborne {T}hermal {E}mission and {R}eflection {R}adiometer ({ASTER}) and {MODIS} sensors. {W}ith a 15-m spatial resolution, the {ASTER} sensor provided reference snow maps, which were then compared to {MODIS}-derived snow maps. {T}he benefit of the method was assessed through the investigation of various metrics, which showed an improvement from 3% to 20%. {T}herefore, the enhanced snow map is of great benefit for environmental and hydrological applications in steep terrain.},
