A creep model for high-density snow [PDF]
, 2017 Abstract : This effort modifies Mellor and Smiths creep model for dense snow to conform to the more general creep power law form (Glens creep law for ice is a special case of this power law). The present study used this general form as the basis for developing two creep models: one to describe the primary creep and another that models secondary creep ...

Grassland Research, EarlyView.Plant species richness was greater in summer in both alpine and subalpine grassland ecosystems. Soil moisture demonstrates significant positive correlations with soil organic carbon and total nitrogen across seasonal periods. Microbial α‐diversity peaks during summer but maintains functional stability across seasons.

Modeling Wet-Snow Shedding from Current-Carrying Conductors
The initiation of wet-snow shedding from currentcarrying conductors was studied experimentally and theoretically. A suspended cable with cylindrical snow accretion was considered, and some of the snow properties at the end of sleeve were measured and ...

Grassland Research, EarlyView.In this study, we compared two sampling approaches to assess autumn freezing resistance. Our goal was to determine whether the commonly employed cutting method, which disrupts root‐tissue connectivity, provides a valid measure of true freezing resistance.

Grassland Research, EarlyView.Seasonal variations in grazing impacts on vegetation in drylands vary with vegetation types. In Mongolian grasslands, seasonal variations in grazing effects on vegetation are greater in summer, when vegetation is more developed, than in spring; however, in desert steppe regions, where vegetation is sparse, these seasonal variations are smaller.

Experimental Simulation of Wet-Snow Shedding from Sagged Cables
The process of wet-snow shedding from overhead cables was simulated in cold-chamber experiments under different ambient conditions. The main objective of the study was to examine how cable sag influences the snow-shedding process. However, the effects of

Human Resource Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The present study examined factors predicting employee participation in employee stock purchase plans (ESPPs). Despite the plausible benefits of ESPPs for participating employees, many employees do not participate in ESPPs even when they are eligible.
