Modeling the Downwelling Longwave Radiation over a Groomed Ski Run under Clear Skies
Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology, 2013 AbstractThe surface radiation budget of a groomed ski run is important to ski racing. Variables such as snow-surface temperature and liquid water content depend upon the surface radiation budget and are crucial to preparing fast skis. This case study focuses on downwelling longwave radiation, measurements of which were made at a point on a ski run on ...

A leap into the future: Towards an augmented reality learning environment in ski-jumping
Current Issues in Sport ScienceIntroduction Professional sports are fiercely competitive. In ski jumping, for example, even small changes in take-off and flight can make a decisive difference between victory and defeat (Elfmark et al., 2022).

The Snow-Friction of Freestyle Skis and Snowboards Predicted From Snow Physical Quantities
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2021 Previous research has shown that friction between ski and snow can vary substantially due to changes in snow conditions. The variation of friction affects the speed a freestyle skier or snowboarder (athlete) reaches during the in-run of a jump.

Revegetation of ski runs in Serbia: Case studies of Mts. Stara Planina and Divčibare [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2011 Revegetation is the most sustainable method of soil stabilization at ski runs. In order to establish a stable plant community, it is recommended to use native species. However, non-native species are most often used.

Exercise economy in skiing and running [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2014 Substantial inter-individual variations in exercise economy exist even in highly trained endurance athletes. The variation is believed to be determined partly by intrinsic factors. Therefore, in the present study, we compared exercise economy in V2-skating, double poling, and uphill running.
