THE CALCULATION TECHNIQUE FOR TRANSPORT OF SNOW IN POORLY-STUDIED AREAS (SAKHALIN ISLAND)

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
Wind spatial redistribution of snow influences on exploitation of linear constructions; it is one of the principal factors of snow cornice’s forming on slopes. Calculation of snow-drift transport is indispensable when solving of practical problems. There

Snow in a very steep rock face: accumulation and redistribution during and after a snowfall event

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2015
Terrestrial laser scanning was used to measure snow thickness changes (perpendicular to the surface) in a rock face. The aim was to investigate the accumulation and redistribution of snow in extremely steep terrain (>60°).

Natural Emergencies and Some Causes of Their Occurrence: a Review [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Ecological and Indoor Environmental Engineering
In recent decades, nature has seen many anomalies with the environment, climate, and the processes taking place. This leads to a change in the temperature of the environment, the formation of meteorological processes that are not characteristic of a ...

Towards a model of glide-snow avalanche occurrence using in-situ soil and snow measurements

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Glide-snow avalanches release at the soil-snow interface and are currently difficult to predict. This is mostly due to a limited understanding of the release process and a lack of data, particularly of the snowpack and underlying soil conditions prior to

River temperature response to atmospheric heatwaves is modulated by discharge and meltwater

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Alpine rivers are becoming increasingly exposed to atmospheric heatwaves. Because of their strong relationship with air temperature, rivers can experience persistent heat anomalies, known as riverine heatwaves, which can have serious consequences for ...
