Wind-tunnel experimental studies of the spatial snow distribution over grass and bush surfaces

Guang Li

The snow is one of the most important water resources in grassland in northern and western China, while the wind blowing snow due to the strong wind there is a common phenomenon, which can lead to heavy disasters to harm the local animal husbandry and tran ...

Water vapor transport in snowpacks

Mahdi Jafari

This thesis is an in-depth treatment of water vapor transport in snowpacks and its impacts on snow structure. The aim is to better understand this transport process and to lay the basis for a model representation in physics-based multi-layer snow models. O ...

Changes in Climatology, Snow Cover, and Ground Temperatures at High Alpine Locations

Michael Lehning

Knowledge about changes in ground temperatures under a changing climate is important for many environmental, economic, and infrastructure applications and can be estimated by transient numerical simulations. However, a full annual cycle of precipitation da ...

Attenuation of wind-induced pressure perturbations in alpine snow

Marc Parlange, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Chad Higgins

Windpumping has been identified as a process that could potentially enhance sublimation of surface snow at high forcing frequency and spawn air movement deeper in firn at lower frequencies. We performed an experiment to examine the relationship between hig ...

Bodennahe atmosphärische Prozesse und ihre Wirkung auf die hochalpine Schneedecke

Michael Lehning

The atmospheric boundary layer over mountains shows a wide range of special characteristics, especially when mountains are covered with snow. This contribution discusses how cloud dynamics, prferential deposition and snow transport shape the obeserved high ...
