Snowmelt Onset and Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) Spring Migration
Remote SensingCaribou (Rangifer tarandus) undergo exceptionally large, annual synchronized migrations of thousands of kilometers, triggered by their shared environmental stimuli. The proximate triggers of those migrations remain mysterious, though snow characteristics

Laws of friction in snow mechanics
, 1976 Laws of sliding and friction are of primary importance in the determination of pre-fracture conditions for slab avalanches as well as for practical considerations such as determining snow pressure loads on constructions built in mountainous terrain.

Mechanics of snow avalanches and interaction with structures
, 2012 The interaction between snow avalanches and structures represents a topic of interest both from a scientific point of view, since different study domains and knowledge are involved (structural mechanics, fluid dynamics…), and due to its applicability in practice for a correct design of structures located in avalanche risk areas.

Mechanical properties of artificial snow
, 2013 Mechanical properties of snow have been a subject of research since the mid-20th century. Theresearch done is based on natural snow. During the last decades the winter business industryhas been growing and also the interest for constructing buildings and artwork of snow. Suchconstructions are generally built using artificial snow, i.e. snow produced by
