Assessment of Artificial and Natural Transport Mechanisms of Ice Nucleating Particles in an Alpine Ski Resort in Obergurgl, Austria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Artificial snow production is a crucial part of modern skiing resorts in Austria and globally, and will develop even more so with changing precipitation patterns and a warming climate trend. Producing artificial snow requires major investments in energy,

Effect of Dwarfing Induced by Uniconazole-P on Snow Tolerance of the Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.)

Plant Production Science, 2001
To clarify the effect of artificial dwarfing induced by uniconazole-P, a gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitor, on the snow tolerance of faba bean, we examined the snow damage, non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) concentration, and resistance to snow molds of

Modeling of Artificial Snow Production Using Annular Twin-fluid Nozzle

, 2022
Nedsnødd AS develops a system for generating artificial snow. The concept is to optimize snow production for geographical locations where so-called ‘marginal’ conditions for snow production dominate the weather picture. To produce artificial snow, liquid

Study of Overall Morphology and Particle-size Distribution of Spray Field in Gas–liquid Mixed Snow-makers

Zhileng xuebao, 2023
Since the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the domestic ice and snow industry has grown rapidly, driven particularly by artificial snow parks with higher requirements in terms of both the quantity and the quality of artificial snow.

Ground Temperatures under Ski Pistes with Artificial and Natural Snow [PDF]

, 2004
Increasing production of artificial snow in ski resorts is controversially discussed, but only few investigations have been carried out systematically to specify the environmental impacts. We measured snow depth and density from groomed ski pistes (runs)

Snowdrift observation around buildings in the wake of the central building of Syowa Station and a cold wind tunnel test with artificial snow

Antarctic Record, 2005
A snow drift survey around buildings in the wake of the central building of Syowa Station was carried out from February to November 2002. Wind was measured at two points above the roofs of buildings simultaneously.
