Estimating Snowpack Density from Near-Infrared Spectral Reflectance Using a Hybrid Model
Remote Sensing, 2021 Improving the estimation of snow density is a key task in current snow research. Characterization of the variability of density in time and space is essential for the estimation of water equivalent, hydroelectric power production, assessment of natural ...

Vertical profile of snow-firn density in the vicinity of Vostok station, Central Antarctica
Лëд и снег, 2023 The density of the snow and firn thickness is one of the fundamental and most important physical properties of the polar ice sheets. The data on density is used for reconstructing the past snow accumulation rate variability based on firn core studies ...

Convection of snow: when and why does it happen?
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Convection of water vapor in snowpacks is supposed to have a major impact on snow density and microstructure profiles with strong implications for the thermal regime and snow stability.

Investigating ANN architectures and training to estimate snow water equivalent from snow depth [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021 Canada's water cycle is driven mainly by snowmelt. Snow water equivalent (SWE) is the snow-related variable that is most commonly used in hydrology, as it expresses the total quantity of water (solid and liquid) stored in the snowpack.

On the saltation of fresh snow in a wind tunnel: profile characterization and single particle statistics [PDF]
, 2008 We present experimental results on the snow drift in a turbulent boundary layer over a flat fresh snow-covered surface. Vertical profiles of mass flux and of the distribution of particle diameters were obtained by means of a pair of Snow Particle ...

Modeling Wet-Snow Shedding from Current-Carrying Conductors [PDF]
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 ...
