Southern Michigan's snow belt: modelled impacts on soil temperatures and freezing / S.A. Isard, R.J. Schaetzl.

Title: Southern Michigan's snow belt: modelled impacts on soil temperatures and freezing / S.A. Isard, R.J. Schaetzl.
Author(s): Isard, S. A.
Schaetzl, R. J.
Date: [1993]
In: Eastern Snow Conference. Proceedings. ([1993]), Vol. 50th Annual Meeting ([1993])
Abstract: Physically based computer model is developed for estimating soil temperatures at depths between 0.05 and 0.5 m in sandy, forested soils, using daily minimum and maximum air temperatures and precipitation as input data. Algorithm is evaluated by comparing its output to 490 soil temperature observations for 1990-93 at stations in southern Michigan. This region was chosen because it experiences subfreezing temperatures and has widely variable differences in snow accumulations, spatially and temporally. Model is used to simulate soil temperatures over 41 years (1951-91) at 14 sites. Simulations show pronounced impact of Great Lakes on soil temperature, primarily through influence on patterns of winter precipitation and air temperatures.
