A Numerical Investigation of a Solidification Model for Snow Micro-Structure Metamorphosis
Understanding the way snow changes during environmental events has wide spread benefits ranging from avalanche prediction to water conservation. Snow on a micro-structural level constantly changes from the moment it forms. Snow metamorphosis is driven by

JEAN CLAUDE RENARD: (POETRY AS) CRAFT OF TRANSPARENCY
The work of Jean-Claude Renard (Toulon 1922- Paris 2002) appears from the beginning marked by the metaphor of the journey - Songs for land lost (1947), and the craft of transparency.

Snow plays an important role in providing atmospherically derived semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) to regions of high latitude and altitude. The accumulated winter snowpack serves as a reservoir for SVOCs, which may then be released to arctic ...

Characteristics of snow structure along Kongsvegen glacier (Svalbard)
Snow cover data in Arctic regions like Svalbard are scarce while interest in distribution, properties and development of Arctic snow is evident (in context of climate change, too).

Some Results on Oxygen Isotope and Stratigraphic Analyses of Firn in Mizuho Plateau, East Antarctica
P(論文)Oxygen isotope (δ^O) and stratigraphic analyses of the 2m deep pits and the 10m deep cores from the coast to the high-inland region of Mizuho Plateau have been done.

Determining Greenland Ice Sheet Accumulation Rates from Radar Remote Sensing
An important component of NASA's Program for Arctic Regional Climate Assessment (PARCA) is a mass balance investigation of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The mass balance is calculated by taking the difference between the areally Integrated snow accumulation ...

Field investigation into the diffusion of semi-volatile organic compounds into fresh and aged snow
Empirically derived field diffusivities were determined over a 24 h period for a selection of anthropogenic chlorinated chemicals in both fresh and aged snow at Tromsø, Norway.

Étude des instationnarités du transport de neige par le vent
Blowing snow causes disturbances that affect both tourism and transportation. Moreover, snowdrifts and accelerated snow metamorphosis dramatically increase the risk of avalanches.

The cryosphere, defined as the set of regions where water remains in a solid state, plays a key role in the Earth’s climate system and is highly sensitive to climate change. This article explores the process of glacial ice formation and its main stages. We analyse how climate change and anthropogenic pollution are altering each of them.
