Students’ Experiences of Teachers’ Ways of Unpacking Visual Representations in the Context of Intermolecular Forces

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This is the third article in a series, emanating from a project that used social semiotics and phenomenography to explore the role visual representations play in the teaching and learning of chemistry. Building on our earlier work that identified five qualitatively different ways that teachers may use to unpack visual representations in their ...

New insights from the bias-corrected simulations of CMIP6 in Northern Hemisphere’s snow drought

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Recent decades have witnessed increasing snow droughts in the Northern Hemisphere, yet reliable future projections remain challenging due to biases in climate models.

Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Applications of satellite snow cover in computerized short-term streamflow forecasting [PDF]

open access: yes
A procedure is described whereby the correlation between: (1) satellite derived snow-cover depletion and (2) residual snowpack water equivalent, can be used to update computerized residual flow forecasts for the Conejos River in southern ...

ESTIMATION OF BASIN-WIDE SNOW WATER EQUIVALENT USING SNOW COVERED AREA

open access: yesDoboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 1985
In this paper a model for estimation of basin-wide snow water equivalent using snow covered area is presented. At first the relation between percent snow cover and snow water equivalent is made clear using topographical characteristics of some Upper-Tone basins and the snow distribution obtained by surveying the Takaragawa basin. The dependence of snow

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.

Spectral Profiler Probe for In Situ Snow Grain Size and Composition Stratigraphy [PDF]

open access: yes
An ultimate goal of the climate change, snow science, and hydrology communities is to measure snow water equivalent (SWE) from satellite measurements.

Delineating seasonal shifts in reindeer habitat and diet selection by integrating GPS telemetry and stable isotope analysis

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Seasonal changes shape herbivore behaviour by altering forage availability and habitat conditions; however, few studies integrate diet and habitat selection data across temporal scales. This study uses seasonality as a unifying framework to combine fine‐scale GPS‐based habitat selection data with broader‐scale dietary information from stable isotope ...

Strategies for using remotely sensed data in hydrologic models [PDF]

open access: yes
Present and planned remote sensing capabilities were evaluated. The usefulness of six remote sensing capabilities (soil moisture, land cover, impervious area, areal extent of snow cover, areal extent of frozen ground, and water equivalent of the snow ...

Snow-Water Equivalent Observation by Pressure Pillow

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 1977
During the period from 26 November 1976 to 10 May 1977, a continuous observation of snow-water equivalent by the use of surface-mounted type pressure pillow 2. 4 m in diameter, mounted on ground surface. was carried out at Hassaki, Yunotani-mura, Kitauonuma-gun, Niigata-ken, Japan.The inner pressure of this pillow was measured electrically by a ...
