Abstract:

Snow density is an important measure in hydrological applications. It is used to convert snow depth to the snow water equivalent (SWE). A model developed by Sturm et al. (2010) predicts the snow density by using snow depth, the snow age and a snow class defined by the location. In this work the model is extended to include seasonal weather variables and variables concerning the location. The model is tested and fitted for 4040 Norwegian snow depth and densities measurements in the period $1998-2011$. A Bayesian modeling framework is chosen. To do inference a Markov Chain Monte Carlo method wit

Abstract:

Avalanche occurrence is closely related to the local meteorological conditions which may be quite variable in mountain topography. To investigate these conditions, and to provide information for avalanche forecasting, we designed and built a weather station which is currently relaying information to a base station from a remote site. Most field tests of snow do not adequately describe the engineering properties. In this study, we wanted to design some tests which would measure such properties and also provide an estimate of snow slope stability. Our tests of shear and tensile strength of sno

Abstract:

Using a sample of highly (over-)leveraged Austrian ski hotels undergoing debt restructurings, we show that reducing a debt overhang leads to a significant improvement in operating performance (return on assets, net profit margin). In particular, a reduction in leverage leads to a decrease in overhead costs, wages, and input costs, and to an increase in sales. Changes in leverage in the debt restructurings are instrumented with Unexpected Snow, which captures the extent to which a ski hotel experienced unusually good or bad snow conditions prior to the debt restructuring.

This study quantifies spatial and temporal patterns in snow water equivalent (SWE), chemistry, and water isotopes associated with snowpack shading due to aspect and vegetation in the Valles Caldera National Preserve, New Mexico. Depth, density, stratigraphy, temperature, and snow chemistry, isotope, and biogeochemical nutrient samples were collected and analyzed from five snowpit locations on approximate monthly intervals between January-April 2007. SWE showed little variability between sites in January (~10mm) but differences expanded to 84mm (30%) by max accumulation in open sites and 153m

Abstract:

The current practice of snowfall forecasting in Canada is to determine the snow water equivalent (SWE) expected to precipitate using a numerical weather predication model and then multiplying this amount by a snow/SWE ratio to determine the forecast snow depth. The 10:1 "rule of thumb" is still widely used operationally as this ratio, even though it is well-known to introduce error in the forecasts because the density of snow is highly variable. In 2003 Ivan DubE developed a decision tree type algorithm to find the snow/SWE ratio which has subsequently been automated in 2004 by the Meteorologi

While significant research has been performed in predicting winter snowpack behavior, maximums and extent, no efforts focused on predicting large-scale spring snowpack behavior have produced successful results. Increasing sensitivity to snowpack changes in the areas of water supply, energy production, agriculture, transportation, tourism and safety are making seasonal prediction of snowpack particularly important. The known breakdown of the wintertime relationship between tropospheric dynamics and snow characteristics indicates the need to explore new approaches to seasonal snowpack forecast

Abstract:

It is critically important but challenging to estimate the amount of snow on the ground over large areas due to its strong spatial variability. Point snow data are used to generate or improve (i.e., blend with) gridded estimates of snow water equivalent (SWE) by using various forms of interpolation; however, the interpolation methodologies often overlook the physical mechanisms for the snow being there in the first place. Using data from the Snow Telemetry and Cooperative Observer networks in the western United States, we show that four methods for the spatial interpolation of peak of winter s

Drifting and blowing snow is an extremely problematic and perilous aspect of roadway travel in four-season areas subject to intense snowfalls and winds during the winter season. Snow drift happens when an adequate amount of loose snow is available on the ground and the wind velocity magnitude and temperature surpass the critical values. In order to prevent the snow from reaching the road, which leads to decreased visibility and increased accidents, snow fences are designed and deployed on the road. Their orientation is based on the dominant wind direction. In this present study, the objective

Snowcovers on slopes densify and deform continuously throughout the winter. These slow, mainly viscous deformations are known as snow creep and this thesis presents an attempt to model them by idealizing snow as a non-Newtonian fluid, where the bulk and shear viscosities depend upon both stress and density. A three-dimensional constitutive law is developed, based largely on analogy with the flow behavior of ice and soil materials. The model, primarily intended for engineering applications (design of structures erected in a deep snowpack), is tested for creep pressures on long rigid obstacles.

Abstract:

The objective of this research is to explore the information content of repeat-pass cross-track Interferometric SAR (InSAR) with regard to snow, in particular Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) and snow depth. The study is an outgrowth of earlier snow cover modeling and radar interferometry experiments at Schefferville, Quebec, Canada and elsewhere which has shown that for reasons of loss of coherence repeat-pass InSAR is not useful for the purpose of snow cover mapping, even when used in differential InSAR mode. Repeat-pass cross-track InSAR would overcome this problem. As at radar wavelengths dry s
