Assessing the impact of artificial snowmaking on Dagu Glacier variation: a case study from a tourism glacier

Scientific Reports
The study combines field observations and modeling to assess the impact of artificial snowmaking on the Dagu Glacier Landscape No.17, with a focus on long-term changes in glacier thickness under varying snowmaking durations (5, 10, and 20 years) and intensities (low: 0.1 m d-1, medium: 0.15 m d-1, and high: 0.2 m d-1). The finds indicate that the DGL17

Mountain Reservoirs for Snowmaking: a Guideline for Design, Construction, Monitoring and Rehabilitation

, 2010
Mountain reservoirs are hydraulic structures in ski resorts in the mountains, used to store water in general for snowmaking. There are more than one hundred of them in France, most of them less than 10 years of age. Despite their modest volumes (5,000 to 400,000 m3) and dam heights of between 5 and 20m, these structures do induce potentially high risks

Snowmaking and sustainability of mountain socio-hydro-ecological systems

Le tourisme hivernal est d’une importance économique majeure pour les territoires de montagne. L’enneigement naturel se raréfie sous l’influence du changement climatique.En réponse, les stations produisent de plus en plus de neige, ce qui implique d’importants prélèvements d’eau. Cette situation pourrait engendrer des conflits avec d’autres usages de l’
