Field Studies of Feldspar-Assisted Snowmaking: Effects on Snow Volume, Density, and Reflectivity
Under most atmospheric conditions, snowfall is triggered by the freezing of supercooled water droplets in clouds through heterogeneous nucleation on airborne particles. Among the most efficient atmospheric ice-nucleating particles, capable of inducing freezing at temperatures only a few degrees below 0 °C, are feldspar minerals.Albert Verdaguer +2 more

Revegetating the banks of snowmaking reservoirs: Benefits for freshwater alpine biodiversity
Snowmaking reservoirs are unique hydraulic structures constructed at high altitudes within ski resorts for artificial snow production. Their number increased in response to uncertain water resources attributed to global warming and escalating demands from winter tourism, and are now integral components of the aquatic landscape in the Alps.Gerfand, Benjamin +4 more
