Strength and power as physical resources for snow shoveling.

Journal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 2002
本研究はショベリング除雪に必要な,パワーおよび身体資質の関係を明らかにすることを目的に行なった.258名の男子大学生が被検者となったが,その内訳は,積雪地出身者(SG)が126名で,非積雪地出身者(NSG)が132名であった.それぞれ握力,背筋力,脚伸展パワーの測定を行なったほか,5 kgと10 kgの負荷によるショベリング投擲を行なった.両グループの身長,体重,筋力および脚伸展パワーの平均値に有意な差が認められなかったにもかかわらず,投擲距離においてはSG群がNSG群を上回り,5 kg負荷時(6.5±1.3 m vs 5.9±1.1m)と10 kg負荷時(4.2±0.77 m vs 3.9±0.79m)で有意な差が認められた.投擲距離とそれぞれの測定項目との間に有意な相関関係が認められたほか ...

Heatwave Characteristics and Trends Across Eight Japanese Cities

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Heatwaves occur with high likelihood across Japan. Strong north–south contrasts exist in heatwave characteristics. Southern locations experience more frequent, longer, and more intense heatwaves. Since 1955 there has been an increase in heatwave frequency, duration, and cumulative heat, particularly for nocturnal heatwaves. ABSTRACT This study provides

Long‐Term Variability and Spatial Differentiation of the Frost‐Free Period in Iceland

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Warming in Iceland (May–September) is expressed as fewer Tmin < 0°C days in the interior and more Tmin > 0°C days along the coasts. ABSTRACT Climate change in subarctic regions leads to significant transformations in thermal conditions; however, the long‐term variability of the frost‐free season (FFS)—and consequently, the growing period—remains poorly

Tropicalization of the Temperate Zone: Spatiotemporal Variability of Winter Warming and Declining Freeze Days Across the United States

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Unique characteristics of winter daily minimum (Tmin) and maximum (Tmax) temperatures and freeze days across the conterminous United States from 1952 to 2024 are examined. Results show spatial heterogeneity in Tmin/Tmax warming rates across the tropical‐temperate transition zone in the southeastern United States, and that the highest temperature on the

Extreme Climate Events in Morocco: Historical Analysis and Future Projections Based on CMIP6 Simulations

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Historical observations and bias‐corrected CMIP6 projections reveal intensifying warm extremes, declining cold events and increasingly irregular precipitation patterns across Morocco. Future warming, particularly under SSP5‐8.5, produces an almost linear amplification of heat, aridity and hydrological stress, leading to longer droughts and more intense

Degradation of Seasonally Frozen Ground in the Three–River Source Region and Its Correlation Impact Within Precipitation–Runoff Process

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

Proglacial lake records of Holocene glacier behaviour and catchment processes in Slettedalen, Northeast Greenland

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Constraining Arctic catchment response to Holocene climate change is vital for understanding future environments. We present detailed sedimentological, geochemical and grain size end‐member analysis of two Holocene (~7.0 ka to present) lake sequences, S1 and S2, close to Zackenberg, Northeast Greenland.

Toward a physically and microstructure-based equation for the evolution of the specific surface area in snow

Journal of Glaciology
The specific surface area (SSA) of snow is a critical structural quantity that controls snow properties and constantly evolves over time. An accurate understanding and modeling of the dynamical evolution of the SSA is thus of primary importance for ...
