The source, quantity, and spatial distribution of interfacial water during glide-snow avalanche release: experimental evidence from field monitoring [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Glide-snow avalanches release at the soil–snow interface due to a loss friction which is suspected to be linked to interfacial water. Presently, the formation and distribution of the interfacial water are not well understood and glide-snow avalanches are

CEO Managerial Ability and the Strategic Repetition of Climate Disclosures

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether CEO managerial ability shapes the repetition of firms' climate‐related disclosures in mandatory 10‐K filings. Climate reporting is highly judgment based and central to firms' broader climate‐risk management strategies, yet little is known about why some firms repeatedly use similar climate narratives and others ...

Adhesion of Wet Snow to Different Cable Surfaces [PDF]

Cohesion of snow and its adhesion to cable surfaces are the decisive factors for wet-snow shedding from power-line cables. Knowing the adhesive strength of snow is essential to predict when snow will shed and what consequences it will have on the ...

Glide-snow avalanches: a mechanical, threshold-based release area model [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Glide-snow avalanches release at the ground–snow interface due to a loss in basal friction. They pose a threat to infrastructure because of the combination of unreliable mitigation measures, limited forecasting capabilities, and a lack of understanding ...

Summer snow extent heralding of the winter North Atlantic Oscillation [PDF]

, 2003
[1] Winter climate over the North Atlantic and European sector is modulated by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). We find that the summer extent of snow cover over northern North America and northern Eurasia is linked significantly (p < 0.01) to the ...

Weather Action: A Study on the Industry Peer Effects of Corporate Climate Risk Information Disclosure

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global climate change has elevated the strategic importance of corporate climate risk disclosure, yet the role of industry peer effects in shaping such disclosure remains underexplored. Grounded in social learning theory, this study proposes an “observation–imitation–reinforcement” framework and empirically tests it using panel data on Chinese

Modeling Wet-Snow Shedding from Current-Carrying Conductors [PDF]

The initiation of wet-snow shedding from currentcarrying conductors was studied experimentally and theoretically. A suspended cable with cylindrical snow accretion was considered, and some of the snow properties at the end of sleeve were measured and ...

Snow effects on brash ice and level ice growth

Journal of Glaciology
Brash ice formation and accumulation occur at a faster rate in ship channels, harbours and turning areas compared to the surrounding level ice. Accurate prediction of brash ice thickness plays an important role in addressing operational challenges and ...

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.
