Soil erosion by snow gliding - a first quantification attempt in a subalpine area in Switzerland [PDF]

, 2014
Snow processes might be one important driver of soil erosion in Alpine grasslands and thus the unknown variable when erosion modelling is attempted.

Statistical properties of fresh snow roughness

, 2008
We present results from a series of experiments in which fresh snow roughness was measured by means of digital photography and analyzed using the random field approach.

A Review of Russian Snow Avalanche Models—From Analytical Solutions to Novel 3D Models

Geosciences, 2020
The article is a review of mathematical models of snow avalanches that have been proposed since the middle of the 20th century and are still in use. The main attention is paid to the work of researchers from the Soviet Union and Russia, since many of ...

Living Snow Fences; TR-460, 2006 [PDF]

, 2006
Blowing snow can cause significant problems for mobility and safety during winter weather in three distinct ways. It may drift onto the road, thus requiring almost continuous plowing while the wind is blowing (which may occur when a given winter storm is

Experimental Analysis of the Shot Peening Particle Stream Using Particle Tracking and Digital Image Correlation Techniques [PDF]

, 2020
The conventional air pressure shot peening process consists of multiple impacts of particles propelled with pressurized air through a nozzle at the surface of mechanical components.

Quantifying radiative effects of light-absorbing particle deposition on snow at the SnowMIP sites [PDF]

The Cryosphere
The deposition of light-absorbing particles (LAPs) leads to a decrease in surface albedo over snow-covered surfaces. This effect, by increasing the energy absorbed by the snowpack, enhances snowmelt and accelerates snow aging, process that in turn are ...

Influence of Ambient Temperature on the Snow Removal Performance of Self-heating Photovoltaic Panels

Zhileng xuebao, 2020
The removal of snow on photovoltaic (PV) panels has become an important issue in current research on PV panels. In this study, the influence of ambient temperature on the snow removal effect ofself-heating PV panels was studied using the basic principles

Snow mechanics: from snow microstructure to avalanche formation

, 2022
Snow is a fascinating material. Its composition is relatively simple, mainly air and ice, but the arrangement of these components in three dimensions is extremely diverse. This diversity of microstructure, often reduced to discrete snow types, originates from different snowflake growth mechanisms in the atmosphere and the continuous evolution of snow ...

Experimental study on the unconfined apparent shear strength of compacted snow

Journal of Glaciology
To address the scarcity of data on compacted snow shear damage under complex conditions, unconfined shear tests were conducted in Northeast China. This study examined apparent shear strength variations with density (300–550 kg·m−3), temperature (−17.4°C ...
