Modeling of the Snowdrift in Cold Regions: Introduction and Evaluation of a New Approach
Applied Sciences, 2019 Unbalanced, or non-uniform, snow loads caused by snow drifting or sliding in cold regions with heavy snowfalls, can be a serious problem for the building industry. However, the methods for predicting snow distribution still need to be improved.

Risk analysis for landslides and snow avalanches. Example applications for snow avalanches [PDF]
, 1999 Prediction of snow avalanche occurrence and its run-out distance inherently involves many uncertainties. The main reason for the large uncertainties is that the mechanical behaviour of snow is extremely complicated, and other external factors that affect

Snow: a reliable indicator for global warming in the future?
Environmental Research Letters, 2012 The cryosphere consists of water in the solid form at the Earth's surface and includes, among others, snow, sea ice, glaciers and ice sheets. Since the 1990s the cryosphere and its components have often been considered as indicators of global warming because rising temperatures can enhance the melting of solid water (e.g. Barry et al 1993, Goodison and

Is Eurasian snow cover in October a reliable statistical predictor for the wintertime climate on the Iberian Peninsula? [PDF]
International Journal of Climatology, 2013 ABSTRACTIn this study, the recently found lead–lag relationship between Eurasian snow cover increase in October and wintertime precipitation totals on the Iberian Peninsula is re‐visited and generalized to a broad range of atmospheric variables on the synoptic and local scale.

The Impact of Climate Change upon the Snowmelt Hydrology of an Upland UK Catchment [PDF]
, 2011 Snowmelt hydrology is important in the winter flow regime of upland catchments in the UK as it can attenuate the extremes of the river flow hydrograph.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020 The MOD10A1 daily snow cover product offers a fine temporal resolution, which is particularly important for time-critical applications. Although the reliability of this product was mostly verified by ground measurements before use, the inadequate ...

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.Abstract Content‐based citation analysis seeks to capture the meaning and functions of citations but continues to face unresolved methodological challenges. This study analyzes a stratified sample of library and information science publications to examine how citance segmentation and annotator expertise influence the consistency of classification ...

Decline in Seasonal Snow during a Projected 20-Year Dry Spell
Hydrology, 2022 Snowpack loss in midlatitude mountains is ubiquitously projected by Earth system models, though the magnitudes, persistence, and time horizons of decline vary.
