Operational snow-hydrological modeling for Switzerland

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The seasonal evolution of snow cover has significant impacts on the hydrological cycle and microclimate in mountainous regions. However, snow processes also play a crucial role in triggering alpine mass movements and flooding, posing risks to people and ...

Accurate Inversion of High-Resolution Snow Penetrometer Signals for Microstructural and Micromechanical Properties [PDF]

, 2009
Measurements of snow using a high-resolution micropenetrometer can be used to discriminate between different snow types; in lower-density snow the signal is sensitive to microstructure, and micromechanical properties can be estimated.

On the use of heated needle probes for measuring snow thermal conductivity

Journal of Glaciology, 2022
Heated needle probes provide the most convenient method to measure snow thermal conductivity. Recent studies have suggested that this method underestimates snow thermal conductivity; however the reasons for this discrepancy have not been elucidated.

The Role of Invariant Functions in Understanding Masses and Mixings [PDF]

, 2006
One of the central questions in theoretical particle physics, since already several decades, has been that of "masses and mixings of the quarks. With the entry of neutrino oscillations into the field, the issue of lepton masses has added a new dimension ...

Early-stage interaction between settlement and temperature-gradient metamorphism

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
Snow metamorphism and settlement change the microstructure of a snowpack simultaneously. Past experiments investigated snow deformation under isothermal conditions. In nature, temperature gradient metamorphism and settlement often occur together.

The singing firn

Annals of Glaciology, 2022
Antarctic firn presents an exotic seismological environment in which the behaviors of propagating waves can be significantly at odds with those in other Earth media.

Snowbreeder 5: a Micro-CT device for measuring the snow-microstructure evolution under the simultaneous influence of a temperature gradient and compaction

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
The instrumented sample holder Snowbreeder 5 is used to investigate the simultaneous influence of settlement on temperature-gradient snow metamorphism in time-lapse micro-computed tomography experiments.

Response of snowpack to +2°C global warming in Hokkaido, Japan

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
The response of snowpack to a +2°C global warming relative to the present climate was estimated in Hokkaido, Japan, using a physical snowpack model driven by dynamically downscaled (DDS) data, after model evaluation.

High sensitivity tests of the Pauli Exclusion Principle with VIP2 [PDF]

, 2015
The Pauli Exclusion Principle is one of the most fundamental rules of nature and represents a pillar of modern physics. According to many observations the Pauli Exclusion Principle must be extremely well fulfilled.

Effect of horizontal divergence on estimates of firn-air content

Journal of Glaciology, 2021
Ice-sheet mass-balance estimates derived from repeat satellite-altimetry observations require accurate calculation of spatiotemporal variability in firn-air content (FAC).
