Record #115187:

Snow depth at the Hornsund station, Spitsbergen in 1978-1986 / Mirosław Miȩtus.

Title: Snow depth at the Hornsund station, Spitsbergen in 1978-1986 / Mirosław Miȩtus.
Author(s): Miȩtus, Mirosław.
Date: 1991.
In: Polish Polar Research. (1991.), Vol. 12(2) (1991)
Abstract: Author determined mean annual variation of snow depth. Snow usually appears in late September and remains until beginning of July. Depth keeps increasing until first half of March and then stays constant until mid-May. Towards end of May it decreases fast, mainly due to subsidence from insolation. Snow cover appears later than in Arctic Basin and disappears sooner.
