The Potential for Estimating Snow Depth With QuikScat Data and a Snow Physical Model

IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2017
Active microwave remote sensing is a promising tool for global snow water equivalent (SWE) mapping. However, many studies have shown that more information is needed to estimate the SWE accurately. A very important problem is characterizing the snow grain size and quantitatively separating the effects of grain size and snow mass on the backscattering ...

Snow Skiing for the Physically Disabled

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1991
The sport of snow skiing by the physically disabled, which originated in Europe in 1935 and first received attention in the United States in the 1940s, is reviewed in terms of opportunities available, instructions, adaptive equipment necessary, and benefits provided.

Physical properties of snow cover and the mechanism of formation of geochemical barriers in snow mass

Vestnik of geosciences, 2022
The results of vertical variability comparative studies of the chemical snow layers composition, chronologically linked to the stratigraphically significant snowfall periods, have been presented. The features of the impurity elements concentration on geochemical barriers in the snow mass have been shown.

Snow skiing injuries in physically disabled skiers

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1992
This study, through retrospective review, examines the injury rate of selected disable skiing populations in general and as compared to able-bodied skiers in areas where comparison was possible. Data on disabled skiers gathered from instructional programs at multiple sites indicate that the disabled skier had a very low rate of injury occurrence. Where

A physical theory of snow gliding

Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 1981
Snow glide, slip of the entire snowpack over the ground, is not observed unless water reaches the ground interface. In this paper, snow gliding is approached from the point of view that a perfect slip condition is attained at the glide interface whereby a thin continuous water film is envisioned to exist between the snowpack and the ground.

Avalanche Forecasting and Snow Physics

1987
Avalanche forecasting is both an operational task in alpine countries and a matter of research for snow physicists, A description is given of the main processes involved in seasonal snowcover evolution, and some critical factors for avalanche release are pointed out.

Physics of snow cover in the climate model INMCM

2022
<p>Snow cover has a great influence on the energy balance on the surface, in particular ability to reflect solar radiation. As well as radiation, when modeling the climate, it is important to correctly describe the water cycle. During the transitional seasons, when the temperature fluctuates around zero degrees Celsius, some of the melt ...

Dust and Black Carbon size distributions in snow and some links to snow physics.

2020
<p><span>Snow contain many insoluble particles, some of which can absorb light (such as mineral dust and black carbon) and are responsible for a large climate forcing, both directly through their influence on snow albedo and indirectly by inducing snow metamorphism – albedo feedbacks.</span& ...
